It starts boring, but also on the stage of the Nürburgring 24-hour is Audi today child at home.

Da’s after Le Mans the second endurancerace that a day lasts, where the four rings very often at the longest end of the draw. For the viewer perhaps a little monotonous, but you do as a designer is something very very good if you the famous race on the Green Hell three times in four years knows how to win.

Audi’s winning (and new) R8 LMS #28, and behind the wheel Mies, Sandström, Mueller and Vanthoor, knew a whopping 156 laps to go. BMW was second and, therefore, has once more become clear that it is a good thing is that the Z4 GT3 will be replaced by the farm-fresh M6 GT3. The SCG 003 from James Glickenhaus knew, alas, no pots to break.

Due to the fatal accident earlier this year there were indeed three zones on the track where the speed downstairs. In one place gold, with a maximum speed of 200 km/h, in the two other places should a maximum of 250 km/h to be driven. They would have such signs along the A2 to convert…
