Why This German Race Track Is The Most Dangerous In The World | Turn By Turn

- In the small town of Nürburg, Germany sits the legendary race track they call "The Green Hell". It's the Nürburgring. Between its terrifying twists, blind corners and drops, the Nürburgring remains the ultimate driver's challenge. The Nürburgring is an iconic 93-year-old, 13-mile race track, and arguably the world's most dangerous.
The Nürburgring is actually composed of two different courses, but it's the site's Northern Loop or 'Nordschleife' that most associate with the track. As the world's longest racetrack, the Nordschleife remains the ultimate test of skill amongst professional drivers competing in extreme races like the 24 Hours of Nurburgring endurance race.
A closer look at the track reveals three things that make it such a challenge even for the most skilled drivers: the steep elevation changes, blind corners, and the lack of runoff areas.
To better understand what driving through it is like,we caught up with someone who circles the Ring over 1,000 times every year. Misha Charoudin is a racecar driver, course instructor, and UA-camr who knows every inch of the track like the back of his hand. He's even managed to guide a driver around it while completely blindfolded.

985 ft = 300 meters
Love it! And at the end they use 1m off the barrier
Germans only knew their meters.
Much as the expert wants to describe the intensity of the ride, the imperial units pisses me off.
Thanks, that helped.

I'm surprised they didn't talk about Lauda's famous crash in 76
Considering this list: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_N%C3%BCrburgring_fatalities
Laudas crash was nothing out of the ordinary for this track...
Yeah, in that period accidents like that happened all the time, specially at the 'Ring, what made it special was Lauda's miraculous recovery and the way he came back and kept winning
Also surprised they didn’t mention flügplatz
@@Boeing--dz7zr the Nissan GT-R crash?
R.I.P Niki🙏
You forgot the most important thing: The weather of that region. It is what makes it the real hell. Because of the length, you can have different types of weather around the track....
I rode this year's 24h bike race round the Nürburgring and in those 24h we had 35°C heat, and 10°C rain, followed by super humid 20°C fog. So intense. Never expected that!
Rain and fog is one of your enemy in that track
A more extreme edition of Spa Francorchamps
yes, it literally can rain and shine in a matter of minutes, and be different weathers across the track at the same time. been there a few times while travelling europe, every lap is different.
Was it N24H 2016? Not a cloud in sight at the pits while there is hail and snow at the Fuchsröhre

@@Werkvuur - Schwedenkreuz?
More for first time drivers: Stay on the right side. During "tourist driving" there is a rule that you can only overtake left. Stay to the right and use you indicator to show the other drivers they can go through on the left. Respect all the signs that give tempo warnings. If you see a 70 sign, go 50. Watch your mirrors. Go maybe about 5 times slow before you speed up during parts of the track and only if there's nobody around.
I was wondering why the one guy had his right indicator on
more safe is not staying at the racing line very slowly and in blind corner because some people might do high speed racing on the tourist track while opened to teh public so the safest one is off from the racing line
That track deserves "made in Germany 🇩🇪" label

IOM is far more dangerous

Yup, brick walls and light posts as run offs. Sometimes covered up with sponge foam or hay bales.
The Nürnbergring has more fatalities, then again, the IoM TT is not really a racetrack, therefore not as many people driving there at race speeds. So yes, in the end it's more dangerous, but not more iconic.

If you have not been there, then you just can not describe it. It is not just the layout of the entire track but also the feeling when you have to pull yourself together in every curve. A real rollercoaster in the middle of nature.
I just got gran turismo sport yesterday and this track immediately caught my attention. It really stands out among the other tracks and i'm a guy who really likes to memorize tracks and do them perfectly. This is the perfect challenge that i would never in a million years do in real life

Jokes aside, it is a bit silly that they don't at least convert the imperial measurements to metric.
What I love about this track is the audacity of it. It's truly unique all across the world.
Well done video for the ill-informed on one of the greatest tracks in the world. Thanks!
While I never have and probably never will drive the 'Ring, I have 'driven' it on video game. Even on a sim, it is a beast. The blind corners, off camber turns, decreasing radius turns even on a sim are taxing.
I can barely do 4 laps before I have a headache. I am in awe of drivers that raced 13 or 14 laps and maintain focus.
I was not prepared for the major roller coaster like feel of some of the dips. I got a bit sick in just one lap.
Nurburgring?
A "wedding ring" is more dangerous.
Nilo Chinilla 🤣
Yea, this video fails to mention the countless numbers of people, including amateur drivers, who drive around this track every year just fine.
DirtyBlastard I seriously hope you’re joking. But of course plenty of people go around the track fine, they aren’t pushing that hard. But that doesn’t mean it isn’t dangerous
Boomerhumor
@@Thumbsupurbum That's like saying "oh yeah airline accidents happen all the time it must be incredebly dangerous" even though flying is the safest mode of travel.
The Nordschleife is pretty fun to race around online. Especially the section after the Karousel until the UA-cam corner (forgot the actual name of that corner), you can literally flow well with the track and the car.
It's called Brünnchen
Yep, especially when compared to modern, stop and go tracks.
That's my favorite part too.online that is.

Funny thing is that on „Car Friday“ the track is open for everyone. Hundreds of cars simultaneously driving the course and sometimes overestimating their talent, results in a lot of accidents.
Tbf it’s a unbelievable dumb idea to let civilians drive the most dangerous course in the world. But it’s so cool at the same time.

This track took Niki Lauda's life over 40 years after his accident here. R.I.P champ
The OP wasn’t saying he died here, he said the injuries sustained here eventually killed him, you two need to learn to read!
HE DIED OF "LUNG COMPLICATIONS." He inhaled toxic, burning bits of race fuel, plastic, rubber, paint, molten metal and breathed in literal flames. He never smoked a day in his life and was ALWAYS healthy. The 1976 accident technically caused his sudden lung complications that killed him.
tfw, when i first saw this track when i played Gran Turismo 4, fun times.
Good tip...I like that....just take ur time brake on the straights don't push till u learn....why I love it 170 turns plus the elevation changes....a look at a turn from every angle possible learn it don't let it suck u in which it does in a couple places....I have been lucky enuf to learn it on a SIM...in a 2010 Honda LMP2 car twin turbo open clock pit style chasing my brother Stefan....but on 14.7mile course..6:26 time.....and that's with room because the car is not dialed in but has great brakes and enuf. Down force...my favorite part is all of it...but the northsliede 6 mile sley ride down the mountain is awsum....I got north slide...
Ya....thanks good work....its a lot to remember so learn first don't be a veiner snitzill comedy....its not play time take it serious that's all don't relax ever...oh yeah take a tip from this Moto GP racer get some sticker racing tires tough guy...thanks sport shocks wouldn't hurt either...
I went around in a m5 comp ring taxi as a passenger and that was an eye opening experience about the course itself. The best way to describe it is being on a really fast roller coaster where you’re very close to scraping your feet on the ground or your arm on a wall.
