"In the 17 years of DTM, we never encountered such a situation that deterred us from holding the event on time. However, the present situation is beyond anybody's control. To us health and safety of our valued partners, participants, visitors from home and abroad are of topmost priority, hence we can't take any risk," he said.
A fresh date for holding the DTM-2020 will be announced soon, according to the organisers.
