The organizer automobile Club of Nuremberg (ACN) is currently fighting behind the Scenes to the implementation of the DTM season starts at the norisring of 10. to 12. July. The final decision would fall until the end of next week whether the classic can be played in spite of the Coronavirus crisis.
especially local hero Marco Wittmann, who is also the ACN member, fears for his home race, held since 1960, each year. If he believes that you cannot draw the event in spite of the crisis? “I am excited and I hope it is, because it’s my home race,” says the fürth to ‘Ran’. “I would wish it to me really, but you can’t guarantee in the current situation, everything.”
Because Wittmann knows many of the 600 volunteers, each year the site at the dutzendteich lake in four to five weeks, with a lot of heart to turn the blood in a circuit. “I believe that the Norisring has the most difficult task of all routes,” says Wittmann.
Wittmann: Noris ring-opening would be an “absolute dream”
“this is not a permanent race track, you can unlock whenever you want to race. The Norisring has to cope with instead of the whole building. And you need to have a certain amount of security that a race is taking place, because it is at the Noris ring a club that is worn by the spectators.”
The current situation is not even in Wittmann for a great Confidence, although the DTM umbrella organisation, has published a revised calendar for the season 2020: “Nobody really knows how long this Coronavirus keeps you on your toes and when it really started.”
While Wittmann may find a start to the season in Nürnberg a lot. “A kick-off at the norisring would be a dream. I have many emotions, and this crowd, this atmosphere is simply unique. And I’ve experienced it, how it is, when you win there. It was a unique experience.”
As on the Noris ring for Wittmann everything
The BMW began a Pilot refers to his celebrated victory in Nuremberg in the year 2018 – it was only on the 2.3-Kilometer-long course, he already knows since childhood and loves. “The whole family, Wittmann was always motor sport enthusiasts and the racing events on site,” he says ‘Motorsport-Total.com’.
“And I, of course, was always out at the Norisring. So the jump in Motorsport for me has arisen. You are already in the blood, have fun doing it. And at some point you are sitting, then even for the first Time in the Kart.”
If he has helped as an ACN member ever at the Noris ring-structure? “That’s not my schedule prior to the race unfortunately,” shakes Wittmann the head. “I don’t know if that would be helpful. Because the guys know exactly where you need to access, which goes Hand-in-Hand. I think I would maybe rather the trainee in the way.”
Wittmann visited the volunteers from the ACN several times before the race. “And even if you a Range tour do, to talk to you, the marshals and helpers. This is a nice story, because everyone knows in the Region here, all MCN, all the build up.”
