The 2022 DTM Trophy was the third and final season of the DTM support series for GT cars eligible for E2-SH and E2-SC-class FIA categories. It was the first season where the BOP was made by AVL Racing.[1] The series was run by ITR, the association also organising the Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters. The championship ran as part of selected DTM race weekends in 2022, commencing at the Lausitzring on 20 May and finishing on 9 October at the Hockenheimring. The series folded following the 2022 season after ADAC acquired the rights of the parent series and decided to continue running the ADAC GT4 Germany as its only GT4-series.[2]
