The NLS is moving mountains to try to get Max Verstappen to compete at the Nurburgring 24
Max Verstappen’s plans to compete in the Nurburgring 24 Hours this year are closer as the NLS made a calendar change benefiting him. He won in NLS last year in a Ferrari GT3. Verstappen is aiming to race at the Nurburgring 24 Hours in a Mercedes GT3 approved by Red Bull and Mercedes. Despite no F1 clash, the preparatory NLS date was moved to accommodate his schedule. The NLS change aims to attract top-tier drivers like Verstappen, enhancing global interest in the iconic race. Verstappen’s involvement last year boosted NLS, and his entry in 2026’s 24-hour race is highly anticipated.
