Mercedes Formula One reserve driver Pascal Wehrlein (pictured)  won the  German Touring Car (DTM) title yesterday to become the youngest ever champion in the series.
The 20-year-old clinched the title by finishing eighth at Hockenheim, a day before his birthday and with a race to spare.
Wehrlein has set his sights on moving up to Formula One and  there has been talk of a possible debut next season with the tail-end Manor Marussia team, who are switching to Mercedes engines.
He has tested for Mercedes this year as well as Mercedes-powered Force India.
