That's why the track demands respect
I saw the first video on the Ringer Forum, they reckoned he turned in too early and lifted a bit causing him to slide
All I know is I'm going over there next year in the GTi, helll yeeaahh

That was the general consensus, apparently that bend has a slight bump which is more pronounced where that guy turned in which is why he caught air slightly

Impressive save on the first video and very lucky avoidance on the second!! Guy in the broken down car is an absolute idiot though for leaving his car there and not warning anyone!
I'll be taking the Golf round there next year - few slow laps i think first

All you should need to know is on here, the Nurburging bible made by Ben Lovejoy.
www.nurburgring.org
A single lap is €19 (£12.79)
I'll be going for a 15 lap ticket, which comes to €220 (£148 - works out £9.87 per lap)
