Nurburgring endurance racing set for split in 2024 following lawsuit
The political situation surrounding the Nurburgring Endurance racing scene is complex due to the involvement of multiple parties with different goals. The main players in the power struggle are NR Holding and the ADAC, Germany’s main automotive club. The NLS series, jointly organized by NR Holding and VLN Sport through VLN VV, is crucial for ADAC Nordrhein, the event organizer of the Nurburgring 24 hours. Currently, the SP-classes are managed by ADAC Nordrhein, while the V-classes are run by VLN. NR Holding sought to increase its negotiating power by partnering with AvD, a competing automobile association. AvD sees the Nurburgring Endurance racing scene as its last chance to maintain relevance in motorsports after losing other significant events. The proposed restructuring for 2024 would give NR Holding 51%, AvD 25%, and VLN 24% of the shares, but VLN rejected this plan, accusing NR Holding of attempting to take over the endurance racing scene.
