Martin Tomczyk (born 7 December 1981) is a German professional racing driver, and BMW Motorsport works driver.

He was the DTM champion in 2011, third in 2007, fourth in 2006 and fifth in 2004, having won eight races.

Racing career[]

After a karting career, he raced in Formula BMW and Formula Three, where he finished 12th in 2000.

In 2001 he moved up to the Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters. In 2000 his best result was a fourth place on the Nürburgring where he also took the fastest of the race. He took his first pole position in Hockenheim 2002 but he retired from the race. In 2004 he took his first podium in Estoril. During 2004 he also finished second in Zandvoort, Oschersleben and Hockenheim on his way to finish fifth in the championship. Tomczyk took his first win in Catalunya 2006 where he also took pole. In 2007 he took two wins to finish third that season.

Eleven years after his DTM debut, he won the championship in 2011, driving for Team Phoenix, after nine races with three wins and a third-place finish in Valencia. In 2012, Tomczyk was signed as a BMW Team RBM driver, moving to Team RMG in 2013.
