Gallery: TG does the first 6 hours of Nürburgring

TG has a poke around the Nürburgring GP circuit as the World Endurance Championship comes to town

  • With the classic Interlagos Circuit in Sao Paulo, Brazil bowing out of the World Endurance Championship this year as the grandstand gets a spruce-up, Germany’s Nürburgring has stepped in as a replacement to fill the quota of WEC races in 2015. Yes, that’s the same series that the 24 Hours of Le Mans belongs to: prototype hybrid Porsches, Toyotas, Audis and a crazy Nissan dicing with track-going supercars through day and night.

    Sadly, the WEC doesn't race on the ‘Green Hell’ of the Nordschliefe, but the Nürburgring GP circuit, nestled to the south-west corner of the famous 12.9-mile circuit. Porsche’s 919 Hybrid locked out the front row of the grid, ahead of the chasing Audi R18 e-tron Quattros and Toyota TS040 Hybrids.

    It’s crazy to see aero-festooned prototypes mixing it with the GT cars on a track as tight and twisty as this, but it made for some truly exciting viewing. Check out TG’s gallery of pics from the weekend after a little snooping around the paddock...
