With one week to go until the 2008 24 Hours of Nurburgring starts: This picture is from the 24 Hours of Nurburgring last year. This is an evening shot, the car in perfect pre-race condition. At this point of the race weekend, it is an incredible atmosphere around the whole paddock, all teams are charged and ready to go.

Other than a nice enginge swap for this year's race, the car has a new rear wing to cohere with some new regulations, it has wider tires and the car has been painted to carry a completely new livery, to be revealed just before the race.
Stop by tomorrow for the next "inside" pic (there will be a new one posted every day up until the race).
Cheers, CarlLabels: Racing |
