Track Characteristics
The Norisring is one of the shortest tracks on the racing calendar, yet it remains one of the most challenging. Its simple layout—consisting of two long straights, a chicane, and two tight hairpins—requires absolute precision in braking and acceleration.
Key sections include:
✅ Grundig Hairpin – A heavy braking zone at the end of the long start/finish straight, a key overtaking spot.
✅ Schöller S (Chicane) – A fast left-right combination where drivers must be aggressive yet controlled.
✅ Dutzendteich Hairpin – Another hard-braking hairpin, crucial for defending and overtaking.
