When iRacing announced that they would be sponsoring the Nürburgring 1000 Blancpain Series race that is held this weekend, it was already rumoured that this could mean a Nurburgring related release announcement. Some even dared to dream about the famous Nordschleife becoming part of the iRacing online racing platform.
Today iRacing announced that sometimes dreams do come true… The Nürburgring Grand Prix track and the 20.8 km Nordschleife will become part of the iRacing track list in 2015.
“iRacing’s partnership with the Nürburgring marries state-of-the-art motorsports simulation with what is widely regarded as the world’s greatest race circuit,” “We are honored and pleased to be able to make the Nordschleife and the Grand Prix Stecke available to our members who will be tremendously excited by this news.”
“We are delighted that iRacing is adding the Nordschleife and the Grand Prix Stecke to its catalogue of great race circuits,” says Dr. Karl-Josef Schmidt, General Manager, Nürburgring. “Thanks to iRacing, race fans and sim-racers all around the world who may not have the opportunity visit the Nürburgring in person will be able to accept the challenge of racing on these legendary circuits.”
