24 Stunden Nürburgring Nordschleife 2025

Once a year, the Eifel turns upside down: the ADAC RAVENOL 24h Nürburgring transforms the Green Hell into a motorsport festival of XXL proportions. Tens of thousands of fans camping in the Eifel forests celebrate a rustic mega-party dedicated to motorsport – while right next door, countless thrilling duels unfold as world stars meet young talents, privateers and seasoned professionals. And, of course, the stage for this spectacle is unique in itself: the most beautiful and longest racetrack in the world – the 25.378-km Nürburgring-Nordschleife.

It’s only natural that this extraordinary setting produces legendary races – as it did once again at the 53rd running of the classic. One hour after the start, a power outage in race control and the pit lane caused a one-hour interruption – giving spectators a second start phase with all its suspense. What followed was a dramatic chase that repeatedly claimed cars from the leading group, before the Manthey Porsche pole-sitters and the Rowe Racing BMW found themselves in a direct battle for the lead. The duel was ultimately decided by a time penalty for the “Grello” following a collision: penalty for Manthey, victory for Rowe.

This dramatic and hotly debated outcome is detailed in the official 24h yearbook – along with countless other facets of this spectacular race. Stunning photography brings every one of the more than 130 starters back to life. Together with complete class coverage, support-race features and a comprehensive statistics section, this book is the perfect reference for any true 24h fan.
