The 24hrs of Nurburgring is this weekend

How are you watching it - streaming on-line?

To me the Nurbergring is nothing special if they don't run the full course.

They do run the full course for the 24.

Me three. Funny thing...somebody could do live streaming coverage from multiple drones for a tiny fraction of what it would cost a "news" or sports broadcast organization to provide the same thing.

It is usually streamed live from the official site, all 24 hrs. I haven't missed for about 7 yrs now. If you want a taste of the race look up the 6hr qualifying race from a few weeks back

Jonathon that is the link for the 6 hr qualifying race but it probably will be the one for the 24hr when its live.

Wasn't this race on Memorial weekend last year?  Seems early. Last 2 years have had great finishes and a crazy hail storm a couple years ago.

It was. I don't know why they move it around. I remember the hale, only at the ring. Check this video of when the race was stopped for fog. Rain Dance

The hail looked like snow up on the mountain. They actually red flagged the race. Many cars were damaged
