also received the maximum 25 points here. After finishing second at the Salzburgring, Schrötter secured his second German championship title at the age of 16, with victory at the Schleizer Dreieck on August 2, 2009, two rounds before the end of the season. He is the first rider since Alfred Waibel in 1988 to succeed in defending his 125cc title. 125cc World Championship Schrötter made his Grand Prix motorcycle racing debut in the 2008 season, in the 125cc class at the German Grand Prix at the Sachsenring, one of his favorite circuits. He started as a wildcard rider and scored three world championship points straight away, finishing 13th. In 2009, again riding as a wildcard at Sachsenring, Schrötter qualified fourth on the grid in wet conditions. He finished the race in twelfth place, scoring four points. He would also enter the Czech Grand Prix and the Valencia Grand Prix this year, finishing in 13th and 5th respectively. These good results earned him a full-time ride for next season. Schrötter competed in the 2010 season for Team Interwetten Honda 125 on a Honda 125cc. He scored points in ten races that season, but ended no higher than 12th in any races. He finished with 27 total points and 18th in the championship. Mahindra Racing (2011–2012) In 2011 he competed in the same 125cc class for the Indian Mahindra Racing factory team. He had a virtually identical season, finishing in the points nine times, with a season's best of 9th in Assen. He ended the championship in 15th place, with 36 total points. Schrötter stayed for one last year in the smallest class, which has been re-branded from 125cc class, to Moto3. He was partnered at Mahindra by Danny Webb. He had an awful start to the year, finishing in the points only once in eight races, a 12th place in Le Mans, and so he was dropped by Mahindra, being replaced by Riccardo Moretti. Moto2 World Championship SAG Team (2012–2013) Luckily for Schrötter, in the 2012 Moto2 World Championship, Ángel Rodríguez also had a weak start to the season, and was dropped by SAG Team after eight non-point scoring races. Schrötter replaced Rodríguez, but failed to score points in the last eight remaining races. Schrötter was partnered at SAG Team by Xavier Siméon for the 2013 Moto2 World Championship, and the pair scored solid points throughout the season. Schrötter scored points
