Don’t miss Le Mans Virtual Series at the Nordschleife this weekend!
The Nürburgring Nordschleife will host round three of the 2021-22 Le Mans Virtual Series (LMVS) tomorrow (13 November).
View the full entry list.
The 8 Hours of Nürburgring will take place on the 21 km/13 mile Nordschleife (literally, northern loop) which features over 100 corners, sweeping curves, rapidly changing weather, dramatic climbs and drops, and a straight over 1.6 km/one mile long. Indeed, LMP2 cars have never raced on the Nordschleife in real life so there are no recorded laps to reference… it will truly be a race into the dark for many!
8 Hours and 157 corners around the Nürburgring Nordschleife.

IndyCar star Felix Rosenqvist and Bono Huis, this time teamed with Collin Spork, in the No.123 Team Redline LMP2 will be looking to repeat their victory in the last round at Spa, while the No.2 Floyd ByKolles-Burst trio of Dillmann, Pedersen and Simončič will be hoping to go one step further than the 3rd and 2nd places achieved so far.
GPX Rebellion Williams No.22 will feature the considerable talents of Williams F1 reserve driver Jack Aitken alongside Jiri Toman and Marcell Csincsik, while FIA F2 star Liam Lawson is racing in the No.11 Red Bull Racing Esports entry with Alex Siebel and Dennis Jordan.
In GTE the fight is going to be as close as ever and the No.71 BMW Team Redline plus the No.91 Porsche Esports entries are currently the teams to beat.
