The two attached youtube clips made by a German TV show the inside story behind the man made crisis at the Nordschleife, also known as the Green Hell.

The second video shows a German made documentary about the finance disaster at the Nurburgring by the current management team and the previous. The uploaders have added hard coded subtitles so other ring fans outside the German can stay informed as well.

It also explains that the current industry pool is also suffering and the likes of Pirelli and Mercedes are pulling out favouring Nardo in Italy. (With more threatening to follow suit)

Local business’s are rightly worried about the closed deals been drawn up to exclude established business’s in the area.
