Nine-time World Rally champion Loeb made his first appearance in the DTM at Portimao last weekend, driving an AF Corse-run Ferrari 488 GT3 car in place of the absent Nick Cassidy.
在DTM揭幕战葡萄牙站中，九届WRC世界冠军勒布，驾驶着法拉利红牛的488GT3赛车，完成了自己的赛事首秀。法国传奇此行是作为缺席的尼克·卡西迪的替补，参与到了比赛之中。
Loeb finished 16th and 18th in the two races in Portugal against a field of 29 drivers, many of whom have been regularly racing in GT3 cars for years.
勒布分别在两回合里以16和18完赛，而整场比赛有29辆赛车出战，不少车手早以是GT3赛事的老将了。
The highlight of Loeb’s DTM debut was the first qualifying session on Saturday, where he set a time that was just 0.786s slower than Mirko Bortolotti’s pole lap in the Grasser Racing Lamborghini.
周六的第一场排位赛可谓勒布在比赛周的高光时刻，他仅仅落后杆位得主米尔科·波特洛迪和他的兰博基尼0.786秒。
That was despite Loeb having to share his AlphaTauri-liveried Ferrari with Red Bull’s full-season driver Nick Cassidy in all three tests, leaving him with limited time in the car.
而在此前的三场季前测试中，勒布还只能跟法拉利红牛的全职车手卡西迪分享测试时间，这让他只有极其有限的机会去预先熟悉赛车。
Asked about his qualifying performance, Loeb told Motorsport.com’s sister site Motorsport-Total.com: “I was seven tenths from the pole. It doesn't look much but it was 21 positions.
在谈及自己排位赛中的表现时，勒布说道：“我离杆位有0.7秒，这看起来不多，但却差了21个位置呢。”
“Then during the race I had quite a good rhythm. I was able to catch some places. I enjoyed the race yesterday. It was quite tough, very hot in the car.”
后面的比赛里我的节奏还不错，让我成功向上赶了几个位子。我跟享受比赛，只是车子里面感觉很热。“
Loeb admitted that adjusting to the anti-lock braking system on his Ferrari GT3 car was particularly tricky, saying it required him to adopt a completely different driving style.
勒布也坦言，调整自己的驾驶习惯，以配合法拉利GT3赛车上的ABS系统，这方面让他略感棘手。法国人必须切换到一种完全不同的驾驶风格。
“This car with ABS is very different to drive,” he explained. “The driving style is very different from my natural driving. So I have to try to forget 30 years of driving, and to change it completely.
“带ABS的赛车，开起来感觉相当不同，”勒布解释道，“这不是我习以为常的驾驶风格。我必须试着暂时忘记30年来的开车习惯，完全转换模式。”
Cassidy is also expected to miss the Norisring round in July due to another clash with his primary Formula E programme, and he could also be absent from the Spa event which falls on the same weekend as the Fuji World Endurance Championship race.
由于和Formula E的比赛周末冲突，卡西迪预计还会缺席七月诺里斯林的比赛。同样的，因为要参加WEC富士站，卡西迪也不会出现在今年的斯帕站上（译者注：这家伙太忙了吧…）。
Asked if he could make another appearance in the DTM this year, Loeb said: “We have no plan for it at the moment. I don't know. But I enjoyed the weekend.”
被问及是否会在今年再次出战DTM时，勒布表示：“目前没这个计划，我不晓得。不过我很享受这里的比赛周末。”
