Track description by Nico Müller

“The Norisring is an absolute highlight for me. At first glance, the race track seems relatively straightforward with just four corners. But they shouldn’t be underestimated, because it’s really bumpy and the surface changes from year to year. You constantly have to adjust to the new conditions and there are many challenges when you’re searching for those fractions of seconds that make all the difference. You need a car with great brakes. We reach high top speeds, particularly this season with our new four-cylinder turbo engines. The Norisring is good for overtaking, so there’s a lot of exciting racing. The Schöller-S is especially spectacular for spectators. At the exit, the cars come very close to the wall and sometimes the wing mirrors scrape them. There’s a lot of action in corner 1 and the last hairpin. But I reckon there’s plenty of fierce competition everywhere on the Norisring. That’s why it pays to visit this race more than once and witness the action live from different spots.”
