Beauty and danger combine on one of the world’s most controversial race tracks: the Nurburgring Nordschleife.
It’s also called “Green Hell.”
In a compilation of videotaped crashes , no one was seriously injured. However, there were a few close calls.
It would appear that amateurs are allowed to race because there are simply too many accidents to assume otherwise. Of course, there are scenes when it looks like pros are competing, and even those races look combative to say the least.
It looks like anything goes. It reminds us of “Pamplona’s Running of the Bulls.”
It’s hilarious to watch, but the drivers have to be given credit for being brave enough to put their lives on the line.
It’s like any sport. It really shows how skilled the pros are compared to amateurs. On the other hand, letting civilians race is a novel idea. No doubt, you’re probably wondering why you weren’t the one to think of it sooner.
Admit it, you’d race the track if you could.
