Since it turned out that ITR is struggling financially so much of course it could be said that ADAC could just let the DTM drown because anyway, DTM wouldn't compete with GT Masters anymore as it simply wouldn't be possible to run it anymore.
Let's face it, ADAC GT Masters has been somewhat losing the battle with the DTM in terms of grid number and quality and it's difficult to fight with such an established series with long traditions.
But I think it could be a chance for ADAC, the second-largest automobile club in the world, to take the DTM under their own wings, essentially ending the damaging battle and getting a chance to do something really good for the German motorsport. Why try to start something from scratch if they can have a product that is a lot more valuable than anything they would start? It depends now on the negotiations and what both parties want to achieve but in my opinion, if ADAC were to run the DTM that would be a great scenario. At least in theory.
