As a legend in DTM events, BMW M Motorsport represents the ultimate pursuit of 
speed, and also ultimate performance, which coincides with iQOO's brand concept 
of 'I Quest On and On' for perfect performance and breakthrough innovation. 

"The iQOO racing spirit will ignite a worldwide passion for ultra-fast 
technology. iQOO phones are built for consumers with a need for speed, who are 
naturally inclined toward superior performance. As a Premium Partner, this is a 
momentous opportunity for our brand. We can't wait to demonstrate iQOO's high 
performance to the world," said Felix Feng, President of iQOO China. 

"Welcome, iQOO, to the BMW DTM family," said BMW Group Motorsport Director Jens 
Marquardt. "Technology and innovation are what drive us, and these are the 
values that also stand for iQOO. This is the perfect basis for a successful 
partnership. We are very happy to welcome iQOO as a new Premium Partner on 
board, and all the more so in the unusual and difficult times that we are 
currently experiencing worldwide and also in motorsport. In addition, the iQOO 
BMW M4 DTM looks great."

Since the start of the DTM season on the first weekend in August, Timo Glock 
has already contested four races in the iQOO BMW M4 DTM at Spa-Francorchamps 
(BEL) and at the Lausitzring (GER). He said: "It's great that BMW M Motorsport 
has managed to attract such a large and forward-thinking concern as iQOO, the 
high-end smartphone brand to the DTM as Premium Partner. This is a great sign 
for the racing series, especially in these difficult times. I am particularly 
happy to be back in my familiar colour of yellow from my first few years in the 
DTM – when you look from the front, at least. I am enjoying driving the iQOO 
BMW M4 DTM."

Glock contests his eighth DTM season in 2020. In his 116 races to date, he has 
claimed five victories, five pole positions and 14 podium finishes.
