The greatest GP circuit ever

When I drive the Nordschleife in "Grand Prix Legends" on my pc, I literally sweat to get under 9 minutes. Now, to do this for 20+ laps and around 8 minutes laptime is crazy. Those guys had stones. Safety aside, these kind of circuits seperated the boys from the men.

But still, modern F1 cars arent designed to cope with the demands of the Ring. But I'd expect Heidfeld would do pretty good if he was to really get on it in a current F1 car, as the rest of the other drivers, at lest of the top 5 teams. And yes it's amazing you can now do a similarly timed lap in a street car, and with a much better chance of survival too!

Forgot to mention that alot of the bumps and such were removed in 1970, so what you run today is a "light" version of Norschleife, at least its a lot safer, so maybe its 15sec faster now.

Nick Heidfeld has as only F1 driver nowadays done just that, but not on full throttle, it was for show. But they estimated he could get just under 6mins at the 20.8km(Pure NordSch). Lauda did 6:58 at the 22.8km in 1975

I only know about the fastest lap ever done in a racing-car. It was the german driver "Stefan Bellof" doing a lap in a Porsche 956 in 6:11 min for pole position of the 1000km race in 1983. (also the shorter 20,8 km lap) A modern F1 car nowadays should do it in < 6 mins, but you need a driver with balls like "coconuts" *lol* |
