Overview
For years, OnAir-Graphics was an integral part of DTM broadcasts, providing comprehensive broadcast graphics for the DTM itself, the DTM Trophy, and associated support series such as the BMW M2 Cup and the Porsche Carrera Cup Deutschland. Our work involved the complete creation of Vizrt scenes for these racing series, playing a crucial role in the visual presentation of this high-caliber motorsport.
Reliable Technology for Dynamic Motorsport Broadcasts
As your partner for graphic solutions, OnAir-Graphics’ expertise was vital to the quality of these sports broadcasts. Motorsport places unique demands on broadcast technology, with data and race situations changing every second. We prioritized maximum reliability and professionalism to meet these dynamic challenges. For this, we utilized our robust broadcast technology and leading Vizrt graphics software to create fast-paced and precise live graphics. Through our Vizrt integration, we ensured a seamless and highly accurate display of all relevant information—from current race standings and vehicle data to sponsor overlays—thereby significantly boosting viewer engagement.

Real-Time Data Integration and Innovative Visuals for Maximum Relevance
A central aspect of our work was real-time data integration, which is critically important in motorsport due to the constant changes in hierarchy and strategies. In modern TV transmissions of motorsport, viewers today expect much more than just the live picture; they want to delve deeper into the race action, track every position change, and understand tactical decisions and driver/team performance with minute precision.
To achieve this, we worked closely with the official timing providers. Their high-frequency, precise timing data, collected from transponders and sensors directly from the track, was captured, processed, and instantly and accurately fed into the broadcast by our systems. This encompassed a wide range of elements:
- Editorial Graphics: Lower thirds for names, information, and tables.
- Detailed Timing Graphics: Current race positions, lap times, sector times, gaps between vehicles, top speeds (speed traps), and comprehensive pit stop analyses.
- Track Maps: Dynamic maps that visualized the real-time position of vehicles on the circuit.
- Automated Driver Radio: We developed a system that fully automated the on-screen display of communication between driver and team whenever radio contact occurred.
These data-driven graphics served as a crucial complement to the live visuals. They provided additional information and context that helped decipher the complex dynamics of the race, analyze every tenth of a second, and grasp the battle for the lead even more effectively. This enriched the live viewing experience for audiences through precise sports analytics, allowing them to immerse themselves even deeper into the world of top-tier touring car racing.
