The second round of the DHLM season is firmly integrated into the high-calibre programme of the 24-hour race weekend. Qualifying takes place on Thursday at 4.15 pm and offers teams their first opportunity to compete on the challenging combination of the Grand Prix circuit and the Nordschleife. The 3-hour race itself will be held on Friday at 4.00 pm, adding extra excitement to the stands and along the Nordschleife on the eve of the 24-hour classic. Historic motorsport and the DHLM are a central part of one of Europe’s biggest motorsport events, eagerly anticipated by participants and spectators alike.
A unique atmosphere in front of a record crowd
Year after year, the ADAC RAVENOL 24h Nürburgring attracts hundreds of thousands of fans – and a record number of visitors is even expected for the upcoming event. Camping sites along the Nordschleife, packed grandstands and an unrivalled festival atmosphere create an ambience that is second to none anywhere in the world. It is precisely in this setting that DHLM will be showcasing its historic racing cars – loud, emotional and accessible. For many fans, this is likely to be a welcome addition to modern GT3 racing.
Historic motorsport as a real highlight
The message is clear: the DHLM race will not be overshadowed by the 24-hour race, but will actively enhance the weekend. The spectacular cars from different eras bring their own dynamic to the programme and are specifically aimed at motorsport enthusiasts who value history and authentic racing. Following the successful season opener, the field will once again provide thrilling duels – and in doing so demonstrate that, even in its first year, the DHLM has the potential to establish itself as a fixture within major racing events.
