Nürburg circuit description
The Nürburgring is located around the village of Nürburg in Germany. It has a length of 5,137 km and 16 turns. The Nürburgring is the venue for the German Formula 1 Grand Prix. The old track was regarded as the most challenging, even dangerous track in the world until it was taken off the calendar in 1976 following Austrian Niki Lauda's near-fatal crash. The new, shorter track opened again in 1982 and the German Formula 1 Grand Prix returned for the 1984 and 1985 seasons. Besides the German F1 Grand Prix, Nürburgring also hosts the German MotoGP and German Superleague Formula round.
Nürburgring features a Grand Prix race track and the very long North track (Nordschleife). The North track has an length of 20,8 km (!) with 154 turns (!) and is primarily used as a test track.
The modern circuit has a mix of high and low-speed corners with limited overtaking possibilities, putting a premium on qualifying and fast pit stops. In 2002 the Mercedes Arena was added and it extended the German F1 circuit by almost half a kilometer.
