Peter Terting

Peter Terting is a German auto racing driver, born on February 19 1984 in Kempten. He won the Volkswagen Lupo Cup in 2002, earning him a DTM drive for Abt Sportsline in 2003, although this proved to be too big a step up, and the teenager struggled to be competitive.

After winning the 2004 German SEAT León Championship, he earned a full-time drive in the World Touring Car Championship (WTCC) for SEAT, joining Rickard Rydell and Jordi Gené. He finished 12th overall, which included taking his first win in Mexico City, having finished 7th in race 1 and thus started 2nd in race 2 (the top 8 positions on the grid are reversed for the 2nd race of the meeting) [http://www.seatsportuk.co.uk/WTCC/wtccnews_display.asp?ID=115] . For 2006 he raced for SEAT's Team Deutschland in the WTCC, improving to finish 9th overall. In both seasons he finished 18 of the 20 races.

Tertiong lost his SEAT drive for the 2007 season, contesting some GT races that year instead. He returns to the championship at the round in Germany.
