DID YOU KNOW   Nürburgring

2025 was the 53rd running of the Nürburgring. Located in the beautiful Eifel region close to the border from Belgium lies the formidable and infamous Nürburgring Nordschleife.

The legendary Nordschleife, spectacular racing cars and a 24-hour party: the pilots in the ADAC TOTAL 24-hour race are racing around the 25-kilometer long combination of Nordschleife and Grand Prix Circuit.

The ADAC TOTAL 24-hour race promises to be a race of superlatives as always and for one day and one night pushes both men and machines to the limit. Where else can you experience a field of entrants with way over 160 vehicles driving at full speed for one whole day and night around the longest racetrack in the world!

Endurance Racing has a long tradition at the Nürburgring with the first 1000km being held in 1953 as part of the World SportsCar Championship. The race was won by Alberto Ascari and Giuseppe Farina for Ferrari.

The full Circuit   version, including the Sudschliefe ran to more than 17 miles although most races were staged on the 14.17 mile long Nordschliefe, a track that was to earn the reputation as the true test of a driver's talent. The 'Ring was a remarkable track with its seemingly endless ups and downs and twists and turns. Fangio - Peter Collins - Jackie Stewart - Nicki Lauda all drove the Circuit.
