When we saw how Mercedes-Benz squandered the opportunity of running an F1 car around the Nordschleife we were pretty unhappy. Michael Schumacher barely got out of first gear it seemed. In this new video, showing Michael’s lap from a worm’s eye view, we can tell that, at times, he did give the Mercedes F1 W02 […]
This is an eye-opening onboard lap of the Nürburgring filmed during Friday qualifying. At the wheel of the #44 Falken Motorsports Porsche 911 is Martin Ragginger. The sights, the sounds, the closing speeds. There is only one Nordschleife. There is only one 24 hour race! As the lap nears its completion the fog and mist […]

The new benchmark for electric powered vehicles now sits at a blindingly quick 7 minutes 22.329 seconds. Jochen Krumbach was at the wheel again for this new record and the TMG crew are just a little […]
BMW DTM driver Augusto Farfus recently took his wife, Liri, for a drive around the Nürburgring Nordschleife in a company M3. For our amusement BMW fitted the car with a few cameras to make sure we didn’t miss any of the action.
