Nürburgring 1927 GmbH & Co. KG has officially launched a request for dates on the Nordschleife for the 2025 season in a letter to race series operators and on its website. This is aimed at operators of race formats that are to be held on the Nordschleife.
The background to the request for dates is compliance with the "State Act on the Preservation of the Purpose of the Nürburgring", which obliges the operating company to "ensure the intended use of the Nürburgring by the general public on a permanent basis and to enable non-discriminatory use by the general public in accordance with the dedication".
As there were sometimes more applicants than available dates for certain race and event formats on the Nordschleife in recent years, not every applicant could be granted use in accordance with the application.
In order to achieve the best possible distribution of dates for the 2025 racing season with regard to the protected types of use, Nürburgring 1927 GmbH & Co. KG has therefore introduced a binding "registration deadline for expressions of interest" from event organizers. By May 15, 2024, potential applicants must inform Nürburgring 1927 GmbH & Co. KG whether and how many dates they are seeking for which type of use of the Nürburgring's Nordschleife, including brief information on the planned event format.
This applies to race formats that are either exclusively or together with the Grand Prix Track on the Nordschleife. Event formats that relate exclusively to the Grand Prix Track are not affected by this.
