Nürburgring

Name: Nürburgring Grand Prix Circuit (see also Nordschleife)

Where: Nürburg, Germany

When: 2016

Why: WEC 6 hour

Who: ADAC Marshal Club

Notes: Though most people think of the Nordschleife when they hear Nürburgring, there’s an alternative track to the green hell that is quite a commercial heaven for big Motorsport events like the WEC 6 hour which I had the privilege of working in 2016. Only the part of the circuit with the recognizable pit garages is used, and all the manufacturer facilities like those from Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Audi and Porsche lining corners with VIP viewing areas and dining facilities. My post was near to the bypas of the Nordschelife so we could hear a concurrent event taking place there (most likely just pay to drive as the Norschleife is a toll road that anyone could drive in anything they basically drive there, on two weeks or four).
