Max Verstappen at the Nurburgring: ADAC Qualifiers explained and how they impact 24 hour race
Max Verstappen will participate in the Nurburgring 24h qualifiers this weekend with Mercedes-AMG Team Verstappen Racing.
The ADAC 24h Nurburgring Qualifiers are integrated into the Nurburgring Langstrecken-Serie (NLS), with two four-hour races this weekend setting the grid.
The layout for the qualifiers differs from regular NLS races, incorporating parts of the 24h Nurburgring circuit configuration.
The qualifier format involves two sessions to determine the grid for each race, with a Top Qualifying shootout for the fastest cars.
Verstappen aims to secure a spot in Top Qualifying 3 by performing well in the qualifiers, which will impact his position for the 24h Nurburgring event in May.
The organisers have outlined criteria to guarantee six teams a place in TQ3, based on performance in previous NLS races and qualifying sessions.
