Thomas Biagi: This is a very special award for me. This was my third time at the Award Ceremony, and would love to return another ten times. The emotions are different every year. I am very happy indeed to end the season in first place.

To what extent does the support received from BMW within the framework of the Sports Trophy help you as a privateer?

Biagi: BMW has come up with a very special reward for its ambassadors around the world, in the form of the Sports Trophy. It is hard to explain to an outsider what it means to be a member of the BMW family.

BMW does so much for its privateers – it is a huge help to us. It is a privilege to feel part of one of the top brands in the world.

You received a very special main prize as reward for winning this year’s Sports Trophy – a drive in the BMW M3 DTM…

Biagi: Ever since I started preparing for last season it has been my dream to drive this BMW M3 DTM. I can hardly believe that my dream is now coming true.
