It is considered as one of the world’s biggest motorsport events: the ADAC TOTAL 24h Race at the Nürburgring. This year, the endurance race has its 49th running and will again attract a high-class field of competitors to the Eifel.
Spread out over 125 cars from various classes, more than 400 drivers will take their chance and will literally go through the ‘Green Hell’ of the legendary Nordschleife while doing so. For Mercedes-AMG Motorsport, the classic endurance race (3rd-6th June) is one of the highlights of the season and comes with high expectations: the clear goal is the third overall victory after 2013 and 2016.
High-quality driver and team line-up
This year, Mercedes-AMG Motorsport will be charging again with a strong line-up in the season highlight at the Nürburgring-Nordschleife. In total, eight Mercedes-AMG GT3s will be on the grid for this action-packed endurance racing classic, four of them with extended support. Mercedes-AMG Team HRT (#4 and #6) and Mercedes-AMG Team GetSpeed (#7 and #8) will be running these Performance cars. GetSpeed Performance (#9), CP Racing (#16), Space Drive Racing (#25) and 10Q Racing Team (#40) round out the GT3 contingent from Affalterbach with one car each.
Three Mercedes-AMG GT4s complement the line-up. Making its GT4 debut in this year’s 24h race, Schnitzelalm Racing has entered two cars (#34 and #37) while BLACK FALCON Team TEXTAR is running a third Mercedes-AMG GT4 (#36).
