An Australian view on the Nürburgring Nordschleife

MINI Challenge racer takes the rollover line at Nürburgring

March 10th, 2008 Posted in MINI, Motorsports, Video


Following on from yesterday’s post about the 2008 Australian MINI Challenge debut I thought it might be a good time to raid the vault for this classic, if alarming, footage from a MINI Challenge support race at the 2006 Nürburgring 24 Hour event. Thomas Winkelhock rolled his R53 MINI Challenge racecar 8 times after getting a nudge from behind at the exit to Schwedenkreuz. Despite the spectacular nature of the crash, Winkelhock was not injured.

These MINIs are tough little buggers!
