The DTM has released the race dates for the 2025 season and is sticking with proven locations. Drivers, teams and fans can look forward to 16 championship races at eight events. The first two DTM victories will be contested at the Motorsport Arena Oschersleben from April 25 to 27 next year. The season finale will traditionally take place at the Hockenheimring Baden-Württemberg (October 3rd-5th). In addition to six race weekends in Germany, the DTM will also travel to the Netherlands and Austria. Tickets for the 2025 DTM will be available from October 20th, 2024 here. After the season opener at Oschersleben, the DTM stars will head to the Dekra Lausitzring (May 23rd-25th). The first foreign race of the year will be at the Circuit Zandvoort on the Dutch North Sea coast from June 6th to 8th. After that, the DTM will be transformed into the fastest city traffic in Germany: the Norisring (July 4th to 6th) in Nuremberg, the only street circuit in the country, is one of the highlights on the calendar. The Nürburgring (August 8th to 10th) marks the start of the second half of the season, in which all remaining events will be held at two or three-week intervals. The Sachsenring (August 22nd to 24th) will be another stop at a traditional German circuit, before the mountains of Austria provide the backdrop for the DTM at the Red Bull Ring (September 12th to 14th). The season showdown will be held at Hockenheim (October 3rd to 5th), with the finale taking place 14 days earlier than in the past two years. “The fans' enthusiasm for the DTM is high, which shows that we are on the right track with the calendar. In recent months, we have intensively examined exciting venues for the DTM. However, since we have seen a significant increase in visitor numbers at all events in Germany this year, we will stick to the proven venues for the 2025 season,” says ADAC Head of Motorsport Thomas Voss. The 2024 season finale and title decision is still to be held at Hockenheim. From October 18th to 20th, 2024, Mirko Bortolotti (Lamborghini), Kelvin van der Linde (Audi) and Maro Engel (Mercedes-AMG) will fight for the title in a three-way battle in the DTM's anniversary season. Tickets for the finale are available from 39 euros here.

Mercedes-AMG ONE breaks its own lap record at the Nürburgring-Nordschleife

02.10.2024

The Mercedes-AMG ONE has held the lap record for production vehicles at the Nürburgring-Nordschleife since October 2022. Now Mercedes-AMG brand ambassador and DTM driver Maro Engel has beaten this record time again. With an officially confirmed time of 6:29.090 minutes for the 20.832-kilometer track, the AMG ONE improved its own record by more than five seconds. This makes the hypercar the first production car to break the 6:30-minute barrier and the only production-based hybrid hypercar to take on this racetrack. “We have held the record for road vehicles for almost two years, but at AMG we always want to go further. That's why we have once again demonstrated what the AMG ONE is capable of. The whole team has done a great job and has been rewarded with this new best time. An impressive testament to the innovative spirit and skill of AMG.” Michael Schiebe, Chairman of the Board of Management of Mercedes-AMG GmbH. “Two years ago, the conditions were not ideal. Today, we had optimal conditions to demonstrate the full potential of the AMG ONE. A big thank you to the team for the trust they placed in me. It was a special honor to set this record.” Maro Engel, Mercedes-AMG brand ambassador. The record was set on September 23, 2020 under ideal conditions. Engel used the hybrid drive's special Energy Flow Control to optimally distribute the electrical resources over the demanding, 20-kilometer route. To confirm the lap time, the vehicle was checked by TÜV Rheinland for its series production and the record drive was certified by a notary.The AMG ONE used for the record attempt was equipped with standard MICHELIN Pilot Sport Cup 2 R MO tires and the AMG ceramic high-performance composite braking system. In addition, the “Race Plus” driving program was activated to ensure maximum aerodynamics and suspension stability. The car is also equipped with a Drag Reduction System (DRS) that reduces drag on fast sections of the track and increases downforce on twisty sections. You can find more information here.

The GLP annual winners have been decided in advance

24.09.2024

In the event of a tie, the lower number of penalty points in the first confirmation round, in the second confirmation round, etc. will decide.” This is how it is written in the regulations of the RCN GLP regularity tests. At the AC Oberhausen's GLP ‘Rhein-Ruhr’ on September 22, 2024, this not particularly popular passage came into effect seven times. In one case (positions 23, 24 and 25), three teams even had the same number of points at the end. This accumulation of equal points is certainly due to the fact that in four rounds, the chance of having the same number of points is greater than in six rounds. A comment by chief judge Jürgen Seidel at the drivers' briefing gave the participants hope for the future: “Today we are again driving ten laps, but I am optimistic that next year it will be different.” Otherwise, it was a normal regularity test. At the start, the weather was ideal for the Nordschleife. An almost cloudless sky and a correspondingly dry track thrilled the 93 driver teams who had traveled to the race. This is what makes popular sports at the Nürburgring Nordschleife fun! At the finish line, there was a surprise in 12th and 11th place. Both positions were occupied by a black and yellow BMW 325i. Both teams had 4.9 points each. The participants of both vehicles came from Titz and each of the two BMWs had a driver named “Esser”. Despite a “zero round”, however, Joachim Esser and Hans-Josef Pistel had to surrender to the second AT Esser BMW with Manuel Esser and Nils Coenen in P11 due to a higher number of penalty points in the first scoring round (3.3/0.8/0.0/0.8) (1.0/1.8/0.2/1.9). Sebastian Gödderz and Jessica Suitter came in tenth. The two Winkelhaiders, who were still racing as rookies last season, finished in their Renault Twingo with a total of 4.2 penalty points penalty points (0.4/0.2/1.7/1.9). Points equality also on P8 and P9. Here Steven and Jennifer Ostrowski (Essen, Mercedes AMG) finished with 3.2 points (2.2/0.3/0.6/0.1) in ninth place behind the rookies Stefan and Simon Zimmer from Blieskastel in a BMW 318 ti with 3.2 points (0.4/1.1/1.0/0.7) in P8. Due to a tie in points, the results of the first evaluation round had to be used again for the next two places as a criterion.  Lukas Schwenk (Volxheim) and Noah Servos (Kerpen) were therefore Mitsubishi Colt and 3.1 points (1.3/0.8/0.7/0.3) were listed in 7th place. With the same number of points (1.2/0.6/0.3/1.0), Falk and Monika Mellentin (Mönchengladbach), who were competing for DAMC 05 in the ADAC in a BMW 318. Andreas Lux and Emilian Slaby(both from Langenberg) came in fifth in the day's standings as the best rookie team. With their Mini Cooper, they collected 2.8 penalty points (0.9/0.2/0.5/1.2). Michael Dedekind and Sandra Meier (both from Landshut), who have already won a leg this year with their beautiful BMW E46 M3, did extremely well again. A total of 2.5 points (1.2/0.5/0.4/0.4) was enough for 4th place. It was close at the top this time. The first three finishers were only 0.1 points apart. Ralph Petzhold (Wallerfangen) and Manuel Ahrens (Hasborn-Dautweiler) achieved third place with 1.9 points. A great success for the driver pairing from Saarland.  Winfried and Karin Schlüter are back! After a rather mixed season, the couple from Horstmar showed that they had not forgotten how to drive GLP. With their red Mini JCW, they drove safely to 2nd place with 1.8 points (0.5/0.5/0.2/0.6). But this time the victory went to the clear favorites, the father-son team Harald and Harald Ezaru from Bad Wildbad. As the overall leaders, they went into the sixth GLP race of the season, which they successfully completed as the winners of the day and overall. With 1.7 points (0.5/0.2/0.3/0.7) in the 6th, Ezaru/Ezaru secured their third GLP victory this season. Add to that three second places – that should be enough for this year's championship. After 2021, it is already the second title win for father and son Ezaru. Congratulations. But even though the champion team has already been determined, for one or the still have a chance in the last race of the season on October 25, 2024.  In some cases, the teams are only a few tenths of a point apart in the standings. With a good result in the final race, it should be possible to move up a few places. As already indicated above, Andreas Lux and Emilian Slaby won the rookie classification, Lux and Emilian Slaby ahead of Stefan and Simon Zimmer, with Marc Buderath (Linnich) and Nina Nacken (Herzogenrath) in third place. They were driving a Renault Megan for MSC Muehlheim in the ADAC.  The team “Nullrunde” (Ezaru/Ezaru, Schlüter/Schlüter, Dedekind/Meier and Mellentin/Mellentin) secured a commanding victory in the team standings with 29.24 points, team ranking ahead of the AT-Esser Motorsport team (Esser/Coenen, Esser/Pistel, Buderath/Nacken and Pistel/Hirsch with 25.06 points) and the MSC Wahlscheid im ADAC team (Göbbels/Göbbels, Derscheid/Derscheid and Vosen/Vosen) with 20.21 points in third place.

Nürburgring receives two-star environmental certificate from the FIA

20.09.2024

The Nürburgring operating company is intensively committed to environmental protection and sustainability. This has now been confirmed once again with the two-star environmental accreditation from the FIA, the world motorsport organisation. The certification, which is valid until 2026, recognises the operating company's commitment and initiatives to promote environmental sustainability and innovative measures. The Nürburgring's environmental management has been certified by the FIA since 2022. As part of this year's audit by the FIA auditor, the Nürburgring was able to impress with new and ongoing measures. For example, the race track obtains 100% of its electricity from renewable energy sources and is specifically focussing on solar energy. The Nürburgring is emphasising its sustainable energy policy with the expansion of the photovoltaic system installed in 2022, which now covers a total of 11,000 m² following an extension this year. A comprehensive energy management system also enables optimal control and monitoring of energy consumption and contributes to more sustainable operation in the long term. The digital infrastructure of the Nordschleife draws part of its power requirements from renewable energies: Self-sufficient solar containers supply camera technology and LED panels. The charging infrastructure for electric vehicles is also being continuously expanded. Just this year, new fast-charging points expanded the capacity and availability of the charging stations at the Nürburgring. As part of its sustainable strategy, the Nürburgring operating company has also implemented climate-adapted forest management and manages 154 hectares of its own woodland in accordance with the certified PEFC standard. In addition, a 10,000 m² noise protection forest has been planted, which not only contributes to noise reduction but also promotes ecological diversity. The race track operators also continue to rely on comprehensive noise monitoring to ensure that noise emissions remain below the authorised limits.As a further measure, the Nürburgring was able to further expand its range of sustainable fan merchandise. Already 50% of the collection consists of OEKO-TEX®-certified or other sustainable materials. ‘The renewed certification shows once again that we can combine ecological responsibility with a successful event location,’ explains Christian Stephani, Managing Director of Nürburgring 1927 GmbH & Co. KG. ‘Measures such as the expansion of the photovoltaic systems, the improvement of the charging infrastructure and our energy management system show that we are consistently pursuing our path. In doing so, we are creating a sustainable basis for future generations.’ The Nürburgring's sustainability declaration and an extract of the measures:www.nuerburgring.de/info/company/sustainability-statement

Nürburgring gives outlook on the 2025 annual calendar

04.09.2024

With the current season still in full swing at the Nürburgring, the race track and event location is already giving a preview of the coming year. From international highlights to event exotics and from motorsport to entertainment, the 2025 calendar once again promises the unique Nürburgring mix. A current overview: Exciting motorsport highlights in the Green HellNaturally, the world's longest permanent race track is also characterised by an attractive motorsport calendar in 2025. Particularly popular with fans: endurance motorsport on the Nordschleife. The highlight is the ADAC RAVENOL 24h Nürburgring, which will once again put man and machine to the ultimate test from 19 to 22 June 2025 and promise a gigantic motorsport party together with tens of thousands of fans. As usual, the ADAC Nürburgring Endurance Series (NLS) will kick off the motorsport year. After the first race on 22 March, eight more race days will follow until October, each of which usually falls on a Saturday. Only on 13 and 14 September are two race days scheduled on one weekend for the NLS and therefore also the only race Sunday in the series. The dates of the Nürburgring Rundstrecken Challenge (RCN) are another Nordschleife format on the calendar. Regularity and performance tests offer popular sport from road-legal to race-ready vehicles. From GT3 to XXL: thrilling motorsport from racing cars to race trucksFans of thrilling motorsport will once again get their money's worth on the Grand Prix circuit. The giants of motorsport will compete against each other on the sprint version of the International ADAC Truck Grand Prix from 10 - 13 July. Every year, the event delights visitors with a family-friendly concept of motorsport, festival, colourful paddock and trade fair. Included in the supporting programme: the ADAC GT Masters. The Fanatec GT World Challenge (29 - 31 August) and the Porsche Sports Cup (30 May - 1 June) will feature high-quality racing cars from the world's best-known automotive brands. The Nürburgring Drift Cup, which will host its first round on 26 and 27 April, and GRIP - the motor event that will attract the tuning community to the Eifel on 6 July, are also high on horsepower and, above all, action-packed drifting. The date for the DTM at the Nürburgring has already been finalised. However, fans will have to wait a little longer before the announcement. The racing series will present its annual calendar in the coming days. Experiences with music and muscle powerAway from the roaring sounds of engines, powerful guitar riffs await at the beginning of June. Rock am Ring will get visitors' hearts racing from 6 to 8 June. According to the recently published first wave of bands, ‘Slipknot’ and ‘Bring me the Horizon’ have already been confirmed as headliners for the festival's 40th anniversary alongside other well-known bands. A similar-sounding event name, but with a completely different intention, can be found in the 2025 calendar with Rad am Ring. In mid-July, thousands of tireless participants will once again take to the start line to conquer the Green Hell with their own muscle power. Incidentally, this is also required for the Hotfoot Run - but not on two wheels, but on foot. The obstacle course takes place on 10 May. Fast-paced PS classics in racing actionThe heroes and automotive jewels of days gone by have also once again secured several permanent places on the Ring calendar. Old and youngtimers and memories of many decades of motorsport will be brought to life on the Grand Prix circuit and the Nordschleife. The Nürburgring Classic will kick off 2025 from 13 to 15 June. This will be followed in August by the BELMOT Oldtimer Grand Prix (1st - 3rd) and the legendary ADAC 1000km race from 20th to 21st September. The ADAC RGB season finale, the ADAC Westfalen Trophy and, last but not least, the Kölner Kurs as a historic motorbike event round off the historic programme. Motorbike service and racing on two wheelsSpeaking of motorbikes: after returning to the Nürburgring this year, the International Motorcycle Championship (IDM) is also on the calendar for the coming season. From 5 to 7 September, the series will kick off with thrilling two-wheel racing. There will be impressive pictures of thousands of motorbikes off the racing line at the ‘Anlassen’ motorbike service on 27 April. One of the highlights of the programme: the joint parade around the legendary Nordschleife. Diverse indoor events: entertainment away from the racetrackThe Nürburgring also continues to see a steady increase in events away from the tarmac. And so the 2025 season in the Green Hell starts and ends with indoor events throughout the year. The International Rhine Shiai Karate Tournament will kick off the season on the second weekend in January, while the German Carnival Garda Dance Championship will be the event finale in December. Both events will take place in the ring°arena, as will two cheerleading competitions on 15 and 16 February and the ‘Darts am Ring’ gala in March. The latter is set to become the undisputed fan magnet in the indoor calendar with over 3,000 fans expected. The exact date for the flying darts event will be announced shortly. Further music and entertainment formats at the Nürburgring venues are also scheduled for next year. Comedy at NightWash live, the Nürburgring Family Day and a colourful afternoon at the Disney Channel cinema have been decided for 2025 and will soon be added to the calendar.
