FASZINATION NORDSCHLEIFE by Ferdi Kroling 8c Gregor Messer

For those of us lucky enough to have witnessed the ‘Green Hell’ at first hand, it’s a place that oozes history, danger and tales of famous cars, people and races round every tree-lined corner. Trying to compress 85 years of racing on the purposebuilt circuit into one book would be almost impossible,

so this terrific image-led book concentrates on the glory days of the ’60s and ’70s with a final chapter bringing us up to the modern day. All the images are incredibly well presented, with many of them rarely seen before, and capture the best moments of Fl, sports cars and touring cars. There is little written copy except for the German-language captions, but this doesn’t matter as the pictures are so good that they can eloquently tell the story of a great era in the history of the legendary NOrburgring.
