The toughest 24 hours in motorsport.

What is the Nürburgring 24h?

If Le Mans was held on a public road that twists through a forest for 25 km, that would be the Nordschleife. Now imagine doing it for 24 hours, in nine different classes of car at once, in any weather. That's the Nürburgring 24.

24 hours, non-stop

Saturday 15:00 to Sunday 15:00. Cars swap drivers every 2-3 hours. Nobody sleeps.

9 classes, one track

GT3 monsters share the circuit with hot hatches. The traffic is part of the challenge.

The weather decides

The Eifel makes its own micro-climate. Sun, fog, rain, sometimes hail. All in one race.

Meet the classes

Nine classes share the circuit. The headline fight is in SP9 (GT3), where Max Verstappen is racing.
