Reacquaintance is a joy. This book recalls the Nürburgring in the time before the advent of

major reconstruction work around the circuit. Those were the days when visitors –

separated from the action by nothing but hedges – were free to experience and

photograph the drivers and their cars, when you did not have to spend the whole weekend

sitting in numbered seats but could wander around the track searching for the best

vantage points.

With this book, come along for a spin around the ‘Ring during the exciting 1960s. Unique

atmospheric photographs show the ‘Ring with all the colourful hustle and bustle on the

track, in the pits and in the paddock, as well as providing diverse impressions of the races

themselves. The text and pictures take you from one section of track to the next, starting in

the Eifel forest idyll of Hatzenbach to the adventures of the tourist drivers in the Adenauer

Forst, then on to flying formula racers at the Brünnchen and to sports cars passing tent

cities at the Schwalbenschwanz.

It was only in those days that the ‘Ring could provide its truly unique experiences, and this

is the first time they have all been presented together in one single book.
