Top Racing Spots in Germany

Pay attention to the weather! I went on a cloudy day and didn't realize how slippery the track could get. A sunny morning is better!

Bring your own snacks and drinks. The food stalls are pricier than expected, and having a picnic at the viewing areas is way more fun.

Download a Nordschleife app for live updates on track conditions. It really helped me plan which laps to take.

Get there by 8 AM if you want to avoid the crowds. I arrived later and spent what felt like ages waiting in line.

If you're driving, consider parking at the nearby public lots instead of the official ones. It’s cheaper and just a short walk away.

My advice is to bring earplugs. The noise from the engines is intense, and you’ll want to enjoy the race without damaging your hearing

I think taking the train to Hockenheim is a great idea. It drops you right near the entrance and you avoid the headache of parking during big events.

I suggest snagging your tickets online ahead of time, as it can save you a bunch of time in line. I went on race day and the queue was crazy!
