He finished the season just outside the championship's top ten in eleventh place, with the highlight being afastest lap at the penultimate round at theLausitzring.

He was entered into the new Trophy Class for cars used between 2002 and 2004.[3] Despite only taking part in half of the seasons' twenty races due to budget constraints, Theobald secured the Trophy Class title after the seventh round of the year atZandvoort, taking six class wins from ten races in the process.[4]

At the penultimate round of the season inEstoril, Theobald was joined in the team by his brother Johannes for a one-off appearance.[6]
Theobald made a return to the series in2008, signing forBritish teamFortec Motorsport a few days before the opening round of the season atMonza.[7] He completed the first four races of the season for the team at Monza andSpa-Francorchamps before being replaced byFairuz Fauzy from theMonaco round onwards.[8]
