I think it's important to say that there have been 70 reported deaths in testing and racing at the 'Ring and an estimated 100 or more further deaths of motorists and bikers, the most recent some months back are two fatalities which were of two tyre testers working for a well known tyre manufacturer when their car lost control. Charoudin heard the crash from where he lives and has some words.
RIP to all those who have lost their lives. Last edited by M5Rick; 06-01-2024 at 08:06 AM.. |

Watching the newbies getting it wrong with some wrecking before the 2024 'Ring policy of not filming crashes anymore came into force. R5 @ 0.55 is classic case of WOT too early.

Fantastic action from the Nurb' 24 HR event when the fog didn't interrupt from all the classes in this quick vid but some say it was a total failure with just 7.5 hours of racing actually running.

Never heard of a Dallara Stradale (the first road car made by Dallara Automobili) and here it is walking over Porsches, so watch out Ferrari.

Buncha GT3s on the Rotterdam-Hull ferry last night. They had been at the Manthey Racing track day the day prior. The new RS is a hell of a machine. 😮

Looks like Misha was driving a Belarusian playet G82 and had a rollover after what appears to be brake failure.
Everyone walked away thank goodness. 😮 |

I’m more interested in the car, the mods and who did the work.
Nürburgring management has always been anti-crash video. Pretty sure he can show everything up until the initial impact though. |

It’s interesting that he posted:
Went for a lap in a G82 M4 built/set up by a respectable Nürburgring shop, so it wasn't some sh*tbox I wonder if an aftermarket caliper failed or was installed incorrectly? Or was it just a fluke? |

Or he just drove too fast. Most crashes on the Ring during TF are human error.
