    In 2010 he left the single-seaters to switch to covered-wheels and, in this case, to the DTM. He competed for various teams, always with Audi cars, competing in 87 races and winning three (Nürburgring 2015; Lausitzring and Hockenheim 2016). He tried GT competitions for the first time, competing in the Australian championship with the Jamec Pem Racing team.
