Top 5 Nurburgring Mistakes (Why and How to Avoid)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 тра 2015
- The quest for mastering the Nurburgring Nordschleife might be a long one that requires years of experience and thousands of laps. However there are a few common mistakes that can be easily avoided. We tried to compile the years of experience instructing people on their first laps at the 'Ring in this short video.
Our instructors Gabriele Piana and Ray Shepherdson will guide you through each mistake with an actual example of things going wrong, plus our suggested approach on how to avoid that happening.

n° 1 mistake: thinking you are the Stig
So driving Nürburgring in a nutshell: Brake in a straight line?
Racing 101.
Driving 101
False; Braking in a completely straight line is not racing 101. In fact, it slows down your cornering time significantly by causing massive understeer when the car springs up from the braking force. Of course braking in a straight line on a straight is ideal, but you should also be braking into the curve to maximize your speed and utilize the grip on the front of your tires when it is pressed onto the race track.
GTX1080 the problem on the nordschleife is that the road is very bumpy... If you brake in to the wrong corners on the ring you will crash... No matter how good you car is...
GTX1080
that feels like next level shit. If Im an amature who only been driving on the road, then I dont think that I should be pushing my car, but rather learning how it handles. Depending on if its RWD, AWD or FWD, and front, mid or rear-engined. Might be wrong though.
Ohh the irony.. of all the Brünnchen vids you've showed the one with the ringtaxi haha.. that's just cruel.
Now to put these to the test in Assetto Corsa!
Kapoweazel Gaming Except Nr. 4 ^^ But maybe in AC2 :D
I believe they more or less happen in AC as well. At least I recognised some of them where braking too late but seemingly with plenty of space left meant it just lost traction and goes straight into the rail. I've been trying AC on that track lately and pretty much the points where he said to brake is where I ended up braking to avoid crashing.
Northey Design I play assetto corsa too!
I feel like the bumps upsetting the cars doesn't really happen much in assetto.
@@imnota It does, but much like a real car, it's not the bump that gets you - it's applying inputs during a bump.
I have watched many Tube videos of the Nurburgring and to see it explained as why people keep crashing in the same places is excellent as a learning curve. Too bad I live in Australia as it would be the ultimate drive.
+mitodabadee It would not be the same without the different elevation changes.
It's worth the trip from Australia Gordon!
If only I could!
And also not the same due to the very difficult weather changes. I live in the near (around 20km away) and all people here know how fast weather can change: Snow, ice, wet vs sunny dry on the same track - would be impossible to do this in Australia.
Yeah I could but the dangers would be dingoes, kangaroos, emus and camels bolting out in front of you and when you get out after crashing, the snakes and the scorpions waiting to give you a shot of their juice!

thank you for posting.
A great video that will have inexperienced drivers will roll their eyes
and experienced drivers nodding.appreciatively.
It is amazing to me how many people leave the track with their cars all dented up, if the car can leave the track.
My tip: Learn the track in a pretty slow car. My first laps were in a Peugeot 405 stationwagon with a 1.9L diesel engine with 70 bhp. Do some laps, see how it goes, then upgrade to a bit faster.
The primary lesson seems to be to concentrate on the basics (brake in a straight line, and apex late) because it's a bumpy complicated track.
The mistake most common motorists make is turn in too early. Than they have to lift and turn more at the end of the corner, with all consequences...
@jt thorsson It's Nürburgring, not Nürnburgring.
@jt thorsson The Nürburgring is very often confused with the city Nuremberg. Many people think the circuit is there instead of the Eifel mountains.
Very impressive! First time I see such a detailed break down of all these mistake. Normally you just find the crash footage. Thanks! Mike
I really like your tips, you always give advice about basic driving techniques that are fundamental in order to drive safely.
Great video - local knowledge makes such a difference here - not least the differences when the track is wet, dry or dusted with snow! Being driven around by someone who knows the circuit and is able to share that knowledge without attempting to impress you is invaluable.
Nice video dude. Well made. I must make the pilgrimage one day
Any chance you could share a link to the whole in car video of the driver talking his way around the ring? Thank you!
thankyou guys. this video is very informative even for the use of skills for other tracks or roads
Very good video, practical and intresting for all car geeks. More vids like this pls ;)
Excellent advice.
Excellent explanation!! Thank you very much!
thank you for this video!!
its very, very helpful!
please do that with all the corners and sections on the nürburgring!
Excellent explenation, will help on the simulator, thanks
I love the video concept, and the execution and editing was also fantastic. Keep up the good work!
I agree you, that's was the same what I thought!
During sim training what usually catches me are 7 - 8 km - Metzgesfeld, the braking point leading to 9 km - Ex-Mühle, including the uphill right handed kink, and finally, that fast balls to the wall 13 km - Klostertal. Often misjudging these sections will give my times some tricky gaps I have to overcome, starting 15 km - Hedwigshöhe, all through 17 km - Pflanzgarten. Usually with me overcooking it somewhere along the way and leading to more loss of time, or a crash. Good tips m8.
Did a couple of wet (drenching) laps with Ron in my R35 GTR. Very, very interesting ... and we of course did Kallenhard on the outside! :-) Very informative film, pity not more people go for pro-instructors BEFORE putting the car, and others in danger. I would strongly recommend anybody to have at least a couple of laps with a pro-instructor. (+150 Ring laps and +350 Spa laps ... and even then I took a pro to refine my lines)
+valcked just play project cars to learn f the instructor LOL
Thanks a lot, very interesting advice !
Awesome video !
Nice video and good idea. I like it. thanks for showing the kallenhard+exit fuchsröhre part.
Thanks for the info. I will remember this when I visit the RIng in September.
Great advice. Thanks
I found this video is extremely useful, thank you.
nice tips, a bit bad they are not in ordered as the track flows. like: 3, 2, 4, 5 and 1 :)
+Leonardo Ratafiá Indeed, and the first clip does not match the comments. It is completely somewhere else on the track.
+Ronald de Rooij 0:53 he enters Wippermann, the part he's talking about, turning into Eschbach 0:57.
+doubleT84 Ah OK, thanks!
Nicely made Video, guys...
Good ones ... for my first experience had to analyze a few videos to avoid this corners ... suggested to the administration to have simulators ready for "New drivers" with this kinds of advices to make experience less dangerous for them and others are the track. 💪🏻
Such an excellent training video. Explain, demontrate then explain again.
This is good stuff. Thanks!!
Very good video!
more videos explainng spin offs and accidents!
really informative on judging speed, steering input and braking!
Great video. Practical. Thanks.
now I can play Project CARS! thanks ^^
***** Should rather play Assetto Corsa, unlike project cars, it's not an arcade game.
***** Also Assetto Corsa has this track laser-scanned, amazing quality ;>
***** its amazing in Assetto Corsa..in Project Cars tho its has big issue with bugs
Barend Bootha Sarcasm ? Assetto Corsa is an arcade game compared to Project Cars.
Gatien Boquet Whaat?Have you ever actually played both games at the same tracks?Assetto Corsa is way better IMO..
Good Video. I nearly crashedmy Lancia Delta Integrale on 4 lap on Ring at Adenauer Forst. Since then i never drove there again and have now Respekt off the Ring!
Great video
Good info, thank's!
You shoud also have mentioned Bergwerk and its (very) late entry. This is one tricky corner where people tend to make mistakes, either by entering too soon or too fast (or both)
How does a South African get such detailed insight on the ring?
Paaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrp.
That was a Saffa accent ...
Great Vid!
For anyone wondering about the song title, it's La Caution - Thé à La Menthe .
Aka. Phoon "Too much for zblock" song.
fantastic video... I remember when I drove your car in 2013... One lap with this Renault Clio rs...
RSRNurburg these will come in handy in the future Thank You very much!
That video should be watched for all new drivers who want to go ring, it is very useful. I'm from Spain and someday I'll rent a car in RSR Offices like M135i or similar..Thank you and good job!
LOL, crashing a rented car at the ring will not be cheap.
Since they specialize in rental cars to drive on the ring, I'd imagine they have better prices and insurances than ordinary car rentals.
Good vid ...very informative :)
wow i hadnt seen like this thanks for making
Really interesting. This guy knows his Ring
Very good 👍🏼
thanks for the EDUCATION !
Nice info... 😎👍

ZndChannel and this? 4:40
***** ***** Thé à la menthe instrumental and you'll find it.
I recognized that solid musuc taste right off.
I will use all those advices on the street too, thx guys.
Thanks guys
Nice vid!
Cool way to make a video, very nice!
Brunnchen always gets me, especially the first right hand corner to were the spectaters are. My GTR understeers there more than you might expect. I ended up way on the curbs there a couple of times haha. Other than that it is just a matter of knowing your car and its limits. And take it easy. One tiny mistake and the walls are waiting for you.
Such an awsome experience though! Its almost like a rollercoaster ride.
I like that you've chosen the music of the 'dance scene' from Ocean's 12 for this video. :)
Ive been driving this in a sim to learn the layout and obviously i make a heap of mistakes, but ive only had one issue at youtube corner and that was going just slightly wide onto the gravel, which i recovered from without even losing much speed.
I find Pflanzgarten (?) Harder. That part that comes from the straight, then does a shallow right into a braking zone for a downhill left. I always always always underestimate it and i carry too much speed in. Then i try to compensate during the right/braking zone, lose most of the traction and slam almost head-on into the wall of the left hander.
Cool Video.
Quality video
These will come in handy in Gran Turismo...
SHates If only GT actually relied an actual physics engine, then this might be useful.
SHates I thought the same^^
Yun Grey haha, this!
Yun Grey now is the part were you say need for speed is way better, or even worse... forza. GT is the best simulatori out there, easily
eduardo.jdm Noo,is AC,rFactor1,2,GSCE,iracing,GTR2,RACEO7 ;)
Great video rsr team, any advice on miss hit miss?
Is it possible to make a wet lap guide (for beginners) on the nurburgring?
Guides like this video and the ideal lap for beginners are awesome!
The short answer is don't drive it in the wet as a beginner, I've been driving the ring for 25 years and I'm still wary in the wet.
it doesent matter if its the ring, other circut or on the street,Always break in a straight line an be in gear before corner if you drive fast, nothing new about that, good vid!
yeah, except if you want to win races - certain corners are much faster when trailbraking.
+OGSiX33 that is true if you drive for a racing team, in a race, in a racing championship as a racing driver. But for the random dudes going to track days unless you are either a) really good and know the track well or b) dont like your car very much its best just to brake straight.
Couldn't agree more!
trail brake all the time on the road. No where the speed where it upsets the balance of the car. Much quicker even when going slow IMO
@@wuzihuzi yes you can certainly do that, its just that the nürburgring has some really mean corners that if you brake in a corner while going 150kmph you will lose it. And for most people its safer to just brake in a straight line than take the risk of braking in a corner not knowing if its possible there.
Most excellent. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
The most dangerous corner to my mind is Lauda Links to Bergwerk. Get your speed down and late apex Bergwerk and keep your speed down. You can easily go in too hot and hit the barrier on exit. You'll get to it between 3 and 4 mins into your lap. Be ready for it.
Nice video
thank you
Excelent video even though I have never been to the nürburgring.
+1 ..Great advise. A wee bit out of sequence the corners mentioned, great view just the same. In the wet,, "the corners dry line are very slippery" ..... man you ain't kidding.... Ask me how I know.... Lolol ... Only damage in that slippery turn in the wet episode was to my ego..
I live in Germany (I'm German) and only about 100 km away from the Ring. So I can't wait for the new season when winter is ending here.
I never understood why people liked this place. Too long to learn for beginners and too narrow for racing and too dangerous for time trails. But then I got GT Sport and learning it and it fun. Fast and has a great flow. Fun overtakes in sim at least. Never repetitive and lots of things to improve on.
Is there a full video of Gabriele's on board instructional available?
I need that map! Not that I plan to drive the Nürburgring, but I’m an amateur historian, and that’s as good a battlefield map as I’ve e er seen!
Can we see the full lap on board somewhere ?
This actually will help my lap in gt6 but I have my own line in the x2014 junior car
After 9 trips over 10 years Angst still gets me. I just can't drive it fast lol
A guide to MHM into Wierseifen would also be usefull.
It was easy in my old ep3 Civic Type-R a little more tricky in my 330d e46.
Back in 2005 on my first trip the section from the Foxhole through to Adenaur Forst was 1 of only 3 I recognised despite thousands of virtual laps on GT4. Another was Steilstrech (sp?) up to Karussel. Kleiner karussel kind of counts as a 3rd I knew it meant I was near the end.
Apologies for any bad spelling of the corner names :/
I found I have made all those mistakes when I drive in Nordschleife , of course not in really life, but in gran turismo, and after over thousand of laps, I already knew those tricks
I'm getting pretty good on the Norshliefe, But that's on Assetto Corsa, It's the corner past the jump part that gets me, I can never do it full on, One thing I should do is learn what all the corner names is, I'm just crap at remembering names, But yeah I can pull of pretty fast times on the Norshliefe when on Assetto Corsa, Not sure about real life, Be interesting to see if learning it on the simulation can be done on track using myself that is, I would be the ginnue pig for that one by the way, lol....
I actually do think I can get next to record times when it comes to sim racing if I put a lot more practice in, I don't get bored of the Norshliefe, The endurance is the ultimate test for any driver I imagine, A normal race track so to speak onto the Norshliefe got be intimidating for any skill level in real life racing, That's a garrantee, It's the cocky I watch how fast and dangerous I can be without realising how flipping dangerous it actually is type of dude who will end up looking like a joker, I would never want to be that person, I bet it takes years and years to master the Norshliefe completely, Then in the rain different race game, lol....
I remember one of the first person to bring the Norshliefe to my attention was Sabine, Gone for now but not forgotten forever that's for sure....
Yeah it's a dream of mine to bust a real life lap of the Norshliefe for years, Still Assetto Corsa is the next best thing for me, Just wish I could afford a PC so I can get off the Console side of Sim Racing, Hopefully I will be in the PC world of Sim Racing soon tho..
If anyone knows of a PC company in the UK where I can get a bad ass PC for not bad ass prices plz let me know, lol...
I'm desperate to get a proper Sim racing UA-cam channel, Sim Racing helps with the CPTSD I suffer with see, Gives you a weird boost to see your vids up on UA-cam, So I can imagine if you actually get thousands of veiws, I can finnally understand why people put effort into a UA-cam channel coz it's not all about the money that potentially can be made, Tho that got be a great feeling for the soul, Rewarding let's just say, lol....
I feel when you master the Norshliefe most other race tracks are a walk in the park so to speak, But then that's the buety of racing, There is always competition, Oh also Sim Racing isn't violent, lol.....
Legends say phoon is now on the nurburgring😂
Bilbo Fappins nah m8, fucking backwards
I'm surprised Adenauer Forst is not in here, or is that too much of a beginner's mistake (when you haven't quite learned the line by heart)?
100% agree. Adenauer Forst is my nightmare in Asseto Corsa...
I would have thought that the Karussell would be one of the corners, but after delibrately making these mistakes in a sim at said sorners, I can understand why it wasn't included.
Lecker vid boet.
What's the background song? It sounds like something Turkish, Arabic but not so sure yet I know it's famous pretty much.
Adenauer Forst and Eschbach surely are in the top 5? Very easy to get wrong line as a newbie, as they are the two most hidden places on the track..
Ahh, so that's why I always get unstuck in that downhill section on AC; braking too late (Down the hill at this point)
Also; do you know any good websites/forums for information for going to Nurburgring if you're coming from down under?
Asides from getting extra driver training and doing some track days here, that is
Song: RJD2 - Ghostwriter
What about the last bit of Ardenauer Forst? People alway misjudge that corner.
Will be lapping The Green Hell in a few weeks, really trying to study these videos and not fuck up!
I'd like to see your take on Kesselchen, the final left after Bergwerk - in the wet.
le KHAN Kesselchen #4, "BMW corner"...
Where can I order that map?
where's that instruction video that was shown with what looks like Ronaldo when he was skinny :P is there a link anywhere?
Super!
What's the song featured at the very very end??
I think i know everyone of those problem, i have never driven the Nordschleife in RL and probably not in the near future, but SimRacing shows every problem.
Whats the name of the driver at 0:55 explaining the Nordscheleife? Any link to the video of him? Help appreciated.
