The Nurburgring 24 hour race is rapidly growing in stature, in fact there are some who feel the race around the clock, around the ring, is now even better than the most famous 24 hour race of them all Le Mans.

This year around 170 cars of all sorts will take part although the quickest will be the GT3 cars including the Audi R8 driven by Australian Warren Luff.

Although the race is not seen on television here in Australia, you can still watch live via the race website at:

We will of course have all the news from the Ring on Tuesday night’s In Pit Lane on C31 Melbourne.
