A DC electric rotating machine, mainly for the starter of an automotive vehicle. The machine includes a stator including a wound structure forming a plurality of poles extending along the circumference of the stator, a rotor, and a set of brushes adapted for the electric supply of the rotor by commutation of the electric current in sections of the rotor. The wound structure of the stator includes a plurality of slots between two central parts of consecutive poles of the stator, these slots being formed in a magnetic body of the stator. At least one of the slots including at least one conducting segment forming a winding of an electrical coil.
