The pit stop entry is located after the Hohenrain chicane, which slows down vehicles coming from the long straight. It would also allow drivers to prepare to enter the pit stop area. On the other hand, the re-entry onto the track is situated just before the Sabine Schmitz bend.
“The test operation in August should now provide further insights into whether the Pitstop Area model is popular with tourist drivers and also proves itself in practice. A decision will then be made as to whether this option should remain available in the future,” a statement from an official Nurburgring press release.
