Heidfeld to challenge old Nurburgring circuit
15 March 2007It has been over three decades since the greatest racing cars on the planet came face-to-face with the world's most challenging circuit. On 28th April the BMW Sauber F1.07 will become the first Formula One car for 31 years to grace the Nürburgring's legendary Nordschleife track. Nick Heidfeld's journey into history will be the highlight of a full day in the Eifel mountains with the BMW Motorsport racing arsenal.
As BMW Motorsport Director Mario Theissen points out: "This day is our way of saying thank-you to the fans for their support. The same weekend, the Nürburgring Nordschleife will also play host to the VLN Endurance Championship. Around a third of the drivers in the race will line up in BMW models, which helps explain why BMW Motorsport is one of the partners in the VLN. An average of 25,000 spectators will follow the action at the world's most thrilling circuit. BMW is a longstanding partner of the Nürburgring."
"With BMW Driver Training, BMW Adventure World, our "Ring Taxi" rides and the Performance Center all based at the circuit, this is a kind of second home for us - as well as the scene of victories in all disciplines of racing. The Formula One car's laps of the Nordschleife will be the highlight of a day devoted to BMW Motorsport. Nick's demonstration will not be about setting records, but a tribute to a unique race track - one which is inextricably linked to the heritage of BMW Motorsport."
