90,000 visitors at Rock am Ring, more than 200,000 at the 24-hour race, and many more at the Nürburgring Classic and the ADAC Racing Weekend: in June, the Nürburgring attracts crowds to the Eifel region with festival vibes, the roar of engines, and endless excitement. It all kicks off with the anniversary edition of Rock am Ring from June 6 to 8. Almost a tradition now, the Nürburgring Classic takes place the following weekend (June 13 to 15), slotting in between the two most popular events at the Nürburgring. Because a week later, on Corpus Christi weekend (June 19 to 22), the famous ADAC RAVENOL 24h Nürburgring will take place.

At the end of the third event of the Rundstrecken-Challenge Nürburgring (RCN), the “Preis der Schlossstadt Brühl,” things got really exciting once again. Around 150 participants took to the starting line in initially dry conditions for the performance test on the 25.378-kilometer track variant of the 24-hour race (Nürburgring-Nordschleife + GP circuit without AMG Arena). Rain was forecast for the afternoon, but it didn't start until later than expected. Many drivers were already in the final stages of the test by then. Ralf Schall (Dornstadt, Porsche 911 GT3 Cup), who had been in the lead from the start, took a risk, drove to the finish on slicks and won for the first time this season. “It couldn't have lasted a lap longer, otherwise the dry tires would have been a big disadvantage.” David Vogt (Waldfeucht, Opel Astra TCR), winner of the RS3A class, opted for the same tactic and finished second. Third-placed Volker Wa-wer/Stefan Schmickler (Karlsruhe/Bad Neuenahr, Porsche Cayman GT4 CS) opted for a different approach to the external conditions and switched to rain tires shortly before the end. “Unfortunately, that didn't give us any decisive advantage.” RCN Series Manager Willi Hillebrand: “For the first time this season, we didn't have ideal weather conditions. But it could have been much worse.” With their third victory in the R2A class, Hagay Farran/Moran Gott (both Israel, BMW G20 330i) further extended their lead in the RCN 2025 standings. The closest challengers come from the H4 class. Christian Frasch/Frederik Laarmann (Wendlingen/Bottrop, BMW 325i) secured their third win of the season and are now second in the championship standings.

Successful Prologue for the ADAC RAVENOL 24h Nürburgring from June 19 to 22: The ADAC 24h Nürburgring Qualifiers offered everything that defines endurance racing on the legendary Nordschleife. Demanding weather and track conditions, thrilling racing action, and dramatic developments. Not only did the weekend whet the appetite for the season highlight in June, but it also provided the perfect opportunity for teams to fine-tune their preparations. In Saturday evening’s rain-soaked opening race, the Porsche 911 GT3 R (992) from Scherer PHX came out on top—and the reigning 24h champions repeated the feat in Sunday’s race as well. After 27 laps, Laurens Vanthoor was waved across the line ahead of the Falken Motorsports #33 Porsche and the Manthey EMA #911. Now, teams have just under four weeks to prepare for the 24h race—and after this eventful weekend, they’ll take home plenty of valuable insights. In Sunday’s Top Qualifying session, GetSpeed claimed pole with their #14 Mercedes-AMG GT3 and immediately engaged in a spectacular first-lap battle with the Scherer PHX Porsche. As the track dried quickly, both leaders came into the pits after just one lap to switch to slicks—followed by a host of other teams. The resulting shuffle in the field provided plenty of excitement as the race progressed. After the first hour, it was the Manthey EMA Porsche 911 GT3 R #911 that held the lead. Having skipped qualifying due to repairs, the team had started from the back of the first starting group. By mid-race, things had settled somewhat, with the Abt Lamborghini #27 also taking turns at the front, alongside GetSpeed and the Porsches from Scherer Sport PHX (#16) and Falken Motorsports (#33). Ultimately, Scherer PHX’s strategy proved to be the winning one, with Laurens Vanthoor bringing home the victory in the blue “Elfer” of the reigning 24h champions. “The fact that it started raining again on the final lap made it unnecessarily exciting,” the Belgian driver grinned. “But overall, everything went great for us. We were able to push at all times, and the tires lasted through the eight-lap stints.” Teammate Patrick Pilet was also pleased: “A double victory this weekend is a mega start for both of us and perfect preparation for the 24h. Conditions today once again showed why the Nordschleife is called the ‘Green Hell’—starting with a drying track, racing in the dry, and then rain just before the end.” Mühlner Porsche Loses NLS LeadSince both 24h Qualifiers races also count toward the ADAC Nürburgring Langstrecken-Serie (NLS), extra attention was paid to the battle within the various classes. The team of Arne Hoffmeister and Tim Scheerbarth had arrived as unbeaten leaders of the Cup 2 Porsche class and, together with David Jahn, defended their NLS lead with another class win in Saturday’s race. In the second heat, they looked on course for another victory—but ultimately fell short, and with that, they also lost the overall NLS lead. That top spot is now shared by two teams following class wins on Sunday: Nick Wüstenhagen, Ranko Mijatovic, and Tobias Wahl took victory for FK Performance Motorsport in the SP8T class with their #187 BMW M4 GT4, while the Adrenalin Motorsport Team Mainhattan Wheels (#650) won the Cup class for BMW M240i Racing Cup cars, fielding drivers Sven Markert, Kevin Wambach, and Adrian Rziczny. All Signs Point to a Thrilling 24h in JuneWith three NLS weekends and now the two 24h Qualifiers races completed, teams are entering the final phase of preparations for the race of the year. Porsche heads into the season highlight as the provisional favorite, having dominated the NLS season and won both Qualifiers races—five victories in total is a strong statement. But the top group is likely to feature seven other manufacturers: Aston Martin, Audi, BMW, Ferrari, Ford, Lamborghini, and Mercedes-AMG. The GetSpeed Mercedes-AMGs and the Abt Lamborghini both delivered strong performances during the Qualifiers, indicating that the 24h will feature open, no-holds-barred battles. This also applies to the roughly 20 classes competing—ranging from full-blown race cars to near-production vehicles, ensuring variety and excitement for all fans. Numerous attractions on and off the track round out the event, making it a must-see. Organizers expect over 200,000 visitors during the race weekend once again this year.

The Eifel showed its harsh side during the first race of the ADAC 24h Nürburgring Qualifiers (May 24–25): the four-hour contest put all 108 entrants to the test under cold and wet conditions that demanded everything from their driving skills. Perfect weather for the true virtuosos behind the wheel, who demonstrated their mastery and the capabilities of their machines. In the end, the 2024 24h race winners—Scherer Sport PHX—came out on top, but this time with their new-for-2025 Porsche 911 GT3 R (#16), driven to victory by Laurens Vanthoor and Patric Niederhauser. They finished ahead of fellow Porsche squad Manthey EMA (#911), who had taken pole in the morning’s qualifying. Third place went to the GetSpeed Mercedes-AMG GT3 (#14) with rain specialist Maxime Martin, Fabian Schiller, and Luca Stolz. A chance for redemption comes quickly: Race two of the 24h Qualifiers will also run over a four-hour distance starting Sunday (May 25) at 1:00 p.m. Right after the start of the weekend’s first race, the GT3 frontrunners showed just how fierce the battle for top positions in the 24h Qualifiers can be. Kevin Estre in Manthey EMA’s iconic “Grello” Porsche (#911) initially held the lead, while a thrilling three-way fight unfolded behind him for second. Falken driver Julien Andlauer (#33 Porsche 911 GT3 R), Frank Stippler in the Scherer PHX Porsche #8, and Laurens Vanthoor in the GetSpeed Mercedes-AMG GT3 (#16) were racing with sprint-race intensity. The Nürburgring Nordschleife, as ever, had the final say: both Estre and Andlauer dropped back on the slippery track, clearing the way for Vanthoor to take over the lead—a decisive move that ultimately secured the win. The Belgian summed it up succinctly: “There are probably no tougher conditions in motorsport than what we had here today.” Teams Use Weather for Setup Fine-TuningKevin Estre, who delivered a strong double stint in the second-placed #911 “Grello”, reflected: “They don’t call it the ‘Green Hell’ for nothing. I’m just glad I managed to keep the car on track—probably the toughest two and a half hours I’ve ever had on the Nordschleife. But we finished the race, and P2 is fine for us.” Estre was among the drivers whose teams used the treacherous conditions to experiment with wet-weather setup. “Everyone was trying something with tire pressures at the start—we got it wrong. In the first very short stint, we simply had the wrong pressure. I had no chance. But it’s definitely better to find that out now rather than during the 24h race—that’s what we’re here for.” Veteran Frank Stippler described a similar experience: “We went with way too low tire pressure. As the rain got heavier, I kept hitting aquaplaning patches—very sudden, almost digital loss of grip. It was hard to manage, and at times with the spray it felt like driving blind.” Double Significance: Final 24h Prep and NLS DoubleheaderThe 24h Qualifiers weekend holds a special place in the Nordschleife endurance calendar. The two races serve as the final chance to prepare for the ADAC RAVENOL 24h in June and offer many drivers a valuable opportunity to collect the laps needed for their "Permit"—the special Nordschleife license. The weekend also awards championship points for the ADAC Nürburgring Langstrecken-Serie twice, which means strong entries across all classes. In today’s first Qualifiers race, championship leaders Arne Hoffmeister, David Jahn, and Tim Scheerbarth (Porsche 911 GT3 Cup 992, #921) defended their position at the top. The trio has won every NLS round so far in the highly competitive Cup 2 class.

On the second weekend in July, the Nürburgring will once again be the setting for one of the most spectacular events of the year: the 38th International ADAC Truck Grand Prix combines thrilling motorsport with a diverse festival program, one of Europe's largest commercial vehicle trade fairs, and strong impetus for a sustainable future of mobility. “The International ADAC Truck Grand Prix stands for motorsport and entertainment, but also for sustainability and innovation. Ticket sales have started very well and fans can look forward to a spectacular weekend full of action and entertainment,” says Jörg Hennig, Sports Director at ADAC Mittelrhein e.V. Motorsport action with a focus on sustainabilityThe Goodyear FIA European Truck Racing Championship (ETRC) races will once again take center stage in 2025. The premier class of truck racing offers spectacular duels with race trucks boasting more than 1,000 hp and sets standards in climate protection at the same time: since 2021, all teams have been racing with 100% sustainable HVO fuel (hydrogenated vegetable oil), which reduces CO? emissions by up to 90%. The ETRC was thus the first racing series worldwide to switch completely to alternative fuels and holds the FIA's highest sustainability certificate.German top drivers Jochen Hahn and Sascha Lenz, who finished just behind champion Norbert Kiss (HUN) in 2024, will also be back in action. Fans can also look forward to the popular Dutch Truck Racing Series as part of the Mittelrhein Cup.Also at the start: the ADAC GT Masters, which provides a contrast to the race trucks with super sports cars from Lamborghini, Porsche, Mercedes-AMG and McLaren, and also uses HVO fuel. Premiere for Truck Efficiency RunWith the Truck Efficiency Run (TER), the promoter of the Goodyear FIA European Truck Racing Championship (ETRC) is launching an innovative competition that bridges the gap between road transport and motorsport while highlighting the role of professional drivers in a sustainable future.The “Truck Efficiency Run powered by Krone” is not about who is the fastest, but who drives the most efficiently.The event will take place on July 10 on the Nordschleife. Participants will compete in various technology categories, including classic diesel-powered trucks and modern electric and hydrogen vehicles. All information about the competition is available at www.truckefficiencyrun.com. Trade fair, job expo, and symposium: The industry meets at the RingParallel to the racing action, one of the largest trade fairs for the commercial vehicle industry will take place in the paddock. Manufacturers, suppliers, and logistics companies will present their innovations, which will bring the sustainable mobility of tomorrow to life, on over 10,000 square meters.A key industry event is the ADAC/TÜV Rheinland TruckSymposium, which will take place for the 18th time on Friday, July 11. Under the title “Transformation in transport logistics: theory meets practice,” decision-makers from politics, business, and research will discuss, among other things, the transformation of vehicle fleets - a political goal that raises many questions and investment needs in practice. Registration is available at www.trucksymposium.de.ADAC Mittelrhein e.V. is tackling the shortage of skilled workers together with the Nürburgring with the ADAC Truck Grand Prix Job Expo, which brings together young talent and companies. It will take place from Friday to Sunday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. in the ring°boulevard. Admission is free. Festival with country, retro, and party nightsThe supporting program also leaves nothing to be desired: music, entertainment, and a cult atmosphere transform the Müllenbachschleife into a huge festival area.On Friday (July 11), the traditional country evening invites you to join in the celebrations: Tom Astor celebrates his incredible 37th appearance at the Truck Grand Prix. Alina Sebastian, Salvati, and The Wild Ride will also be there.On Saturday (July 12), the big party highlight follows: Loona, Malle Anja, Markus Becker, and Sabbotage will rock the Müllenbachschleife.

Spring has not only turned the trees green again – it’s also brought new life to the “Green Hell”: The season on the Nürburgring Nordschleife is already in full swing, and after the second race of the ADAC Nürburgring Langstrecken-Serie (NLS), the first favorites for the legendary ADAC RAVENOL 24h Nürburgring from June 19 to 22, 2025, are starting to emerge. But before the spectacular highlight of the season on the world’s longest racetrack, there are more opportunities for valuable test and training kilometers within the NLS framework. The grand finale of the preparations will be the ADAC 24h Qualifiers on May 24 and 25. Since these count as a double-header for the NLS, they carry particular significance not only for the year-long Nordschleife series but also for the 24h Nürburgring itself. All the more reason to mark the weekend in your calendar—and grab your tickets early. Two teams have stood out in particular at the start of the season. On both occasions, the Audi R8 LMS GT3 from Juta Racing secured pole position, piloted by 24h defending champion Frank Stippler. The driver from Bad Münstereifel once again proved that this GT3 “veteran” may no longer be part of the latest vehicle generation, but in the hands of an experienced racer, it still ranks among the favorites. That said, both race wins went to state-of-the-art machinery. The Porsche 911 GT3 R from Falken Motorsports now boasts two victories and has established itself early on as a strong contender. The traditional works team of the Japanese tire manufacturer prevailed against very strong competition. That was especially evident in the second NLS race, where the Aston Martin from the Walkenhorst team crossed the finish line first but was classified second due to a time penalty for an insufficient pit stop duration. “The penalty is definitely annoying, but in the end, we still got a podium,” said Walkenhorst driver Mattia Drudi (Melle), pleased with a successful debut. “It was my first time in an Aston Martin on the Nordschleife, and our focus is clearly on preparing for the 24h Nürburgring.” The winning drivers also had their eyes firmly on the bigger picture. Falken driver Alessio Picariello (BEL) called it “perfect preparation for the 24h,” while his teammate Dorian Boccolacci (FRA) commented on only his second GT3 race on the Nordschleife: “I don’t have much experience yet in such a car on this track. So it’s even nicer that the season started with two podiums—second in NLS1, and now a win. And in the end, we didn’t even need to take full risks because we knew the second-place car would get a time penalty.” A high-profile showcase of super sports carsThe top tier of endurance racing on the Nordschleife is more diverse than ever this year. In the second NLS race, a BMW M4 GT3 from Rowe Racing joined the podium as the third brand represented. No fewer than six different manufacturers filled the top ten: Audi, Aston Martin, BMW, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Mercedes-AMG, and Porsche are all part of this thrilling GT3 spectacle. To ensure the 24h race in June lives up to its excitement, the lead-up phase this year is particularly extensive: after the third NLS race, the ADAC 24h Nürburgring Qualifiers (May 24/25) will feature two races that also count toward the NLS championship. That’s when we’ll likely see teams whose race cars haven’t been ready up to now—because by the Qualifiers, things get serious. Extra grid slots for the 24h Top Qualifying are up for grabs, and Nordschleife rookies get an ideal opportunity to fast-track their “Permit,” the mandatory special license for racing on the Nordschleife. Only after the Qualifier weekend will the 24h Nürburgring entry list be finalized: the registration deadline for the 24h is May 28. Unsurprisingly, interest is already high, and the Qualifiers are expected to attract a packed field. A trip to the Ring is worth itAs if two NLS races in one weekend and intensive 24h preparation weren’t reason enough to attend the 24h Qualifiers, the event also features an exciting support program. For example, there’s plenty of grassroots and youth racing to enjoy. On Saturday midday, the RCN will hold a performance test on the Nordschleife. Throughout the weekend, car slalom competitions will be held in the AMG Arena, and youth eKart slaloms will take place in the paddock. One highlight is the first of the two races, which starts Saturday at 5:30 p.m. and runs four hours into the evening—delivering full endurance racing vibes. Sunday is headlined by the Top Qualifying session, where teams battle for the best grid positions at the front. The second four-hour race then begins at 1:00 p.m. If you want to experience this motorsport spectacle live, tickets are available here starting at just €25 (Saturday or Sunday day passes). These grant access to the grandstands on the GP circuit, the paddock, and prime spectator areas along the Nordschleife such as Brünnchen and Pflanzgarten. If you can’t make it to the track, you can tune into the livestream at 24h-rennen.de/live, broadcasting Saturday from 4:30 p.m. to 10:15 p.m. and Sunday from 10:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.

Several dates at the Nürburgring in April are proving to be real visitor magnets. In addition to the well-known motorcycle season opener 'Anlassen' (April 27), thousands of ring fans are traditionally expected in the Eifel region over the entire Easter weekend (April 18-21). The exciting second race of the Nürburgring Langstrecken-Serie (April 26) is also taking place – an important test for many teams in preparation for the 24-hour race. The Nürburgring Drift Cup also starts its season on the same weekend (April 26th-27th). Classic car fans also get their money's worth in the fourth month of the year. The After Work Classics invites all owners of historic vehicles to the Grand Prix circuit for the first time in 2025 on April 22nd. A brief overview of the highlights: “Anlassen” motorcycle service | April 27Thousands of motorcyclists and their joint ride over the famous 20.832 kilometers of the Nordschleife: the two-wheeler parade at “Anlassen” is an extraordinary experience for the two-wheeler community every year. This year, the Nürburgring is once again inviting all motorcyclists to the season opener. On Sunday, April 27, thousands of bikers are expected in the Eifel again. From early morning, demonstrations, hands-on activities and various exhibitors will lure visitors to the paddock of the Ring before “Anlassen” reaches its climax: with a special two-wheeler church service and the joint convoy across the famous asphalt of the race track at the end. As every year, admission to the event is free. Easter weekend at the Nürburgring | April 18-21Four days of tourist trips in a row: Easter is traditionally also a celebration for Nürburgring enthusiasts. Both the Nordschleife and the Grand Prix circuit are open to everyone from Good Friday to Easter Monday (April 18 to 21). Visitors can take to the legendary asphalt in their own vehicles all day long. The Easter tourist trips are a real magnet for visitors: thousands of automobile fans from all over the world usually flock to the Eifel for a short vacation during this weekend. And there is also plenty to discover off the track at the Nürburgring destination: driving fun for children and adults on the ring°kart track, family fun with historic racing cars in the ring°werk motorsport adventure museum, fascinating digital action in the Nürburgring eSports Bar – and maybe the Easter Bunny will even leave a little something for loved ones in the ring°fanshop. ADAC Nürburgring Langstrecken-Serie | April 26Racing action on the legendary Nordschleife: The second race of the ADAC Nürburgring Langstrecken-Serie (NLS) this season will take place on Saturday, April 26, at the most demanding race track in the world. Many top teams have already announced their participation, as it is an important milestone for many of them before the 24-hour race in June. The key points of the NLS: More than 120 race cars at the same time – from the lightning-fast Ferrari GT3 to the production-based BMW – compete in a demanding race over four hours on the combination of the Nordschleife and Grand Prix circuit. And the best thing about it is that fans get to be really close. The ticket (adults €25, children under 14 free) includes the paddock, the starting grid and access to the grandstands. Nürburgring Drift Cup | April 26 & 27It's not just since the Fast and Furious movies that car fans have known: perfect drifts are a fine art. Year after year, talented drifts from all over Europe come to the Nürburgring Drift Cup in the Müllenbachschleife. On the traditional section of the Grand Prix circuit, they compete against each other in direct duels in front of critical judges. The high-powered vehicles deliver a great sound backdrop and the pilots give everything for the perfect drift. The first date in 2025 is the last weekend in April, April 26-27, and will be held concurrently with the NürburgringLangstrecken-Serie and the motorcycle church service “Anlassen”. Tickets are already available for 20 euros (adult day ticket). After Work Classics | 22.
