After his retirement from Formula One in 1986, Keke Rosberg stayed involved in racing, competing with Peugeot's World Sports Car Championship operation in the early 1990s.

He entered Germany's top-level touring car championship – the DTM – in 1992, driving first for Mercedes-AMG,[1] and then for Opel Team Joest.

In this first year, Keke Rosberg continued driving alongside reigning champion Klaus Ludwig in a pair of Calibra V6 coupes.

As the DTM evolved into the short-lived International Touring car Championship, Ludwig moved to another Opel squad Zakspeed.

After the collapse of the ITC, Team Rosberg transferred to the Super Tourenwagen Cup, Germany's Supertouring series.

[8] When Nissan's factory participation in the STC came to an end, Rosberg took a sabbatical from touring cars in 1999 and became involved in formula racing for the first time.

One such option, which did not come to fruition, was the possibility of running the Prodrive-built Aston Martin DBR9 GT1 car in the FIA GT Championship.

Team Rosberg has continued to race Audi cars in DTM, with 2019 as its most successful recent season.

When Team Rosberg left the Super Tourenwagen Cup, it made the jump to formula racing.
