Martin will drive a Honda Accord in the Danish Touring Car Championship.
Former World Rally Championship ace Markko Martin, out of a ride since Peugeot's withdrawal from the WRC, will switch to pavement racing this season.
The Estonian will steer a European-spec Honda Accord (sold stateside as the Acura TSX) for Hartmann Racing in the Danish Touring Car Championship. Martin will also run a team in the Estonian national rally championship.
The 30-year old driver, a five-time WRC rally winner, had his season interrupted last year when an accident at Rally Great Britain claimed the life of his co-driver Michael Park.
