The '''Norisring''' is a [[street circuit]] in [[Nuremberg]], [[Bavaria]], [[Germany]]. Originally established as a [[motorcycle racing]] venue in 1947 and named in a 1950 competition to win a light motorcycle, the track became known as a [[sports car racing]] venue in the 1970s.<ref name="norisring1950" /><ref name="norisringcars" /> Since 2000, it has been annually used by the [[Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters]], the premier Germany-based [[touring car racing]] series. The length of the simple track with two [[hairpin turn]]s and a [[chicane]] has been set to {{convert|2.300|km|mi|abbr=on}} since 1972, after various lengths were used in its early years.

==History==

On 18 May 1947, the first [[motorcycle racing]] event took place at the Nuremberg street circuit that ran around a {{convert|360|m|yd|abbr=on}} long grandstand, called the ''[[Nazi_party_rally_grounds#Zeppelinfeld|Zeppelinhaupttribüne]]'' or simply the ''Steintribüne''. In 1950, the name ''Norisring'' was chosen for the venue in a competition to win a light motorcycle.<ref name="norisring1950">{{cite web|url=https://norisring.de/eine-strecke-mit-tradition-und-zukunft/|title=Eine Strecke mit Tradition und Zukunft|website=Norisring.de|date=June 2004 |publisher=MCN GmbH / e.V.|language=de-DE|access-date=2022-01-10}}</ref> Motorcycle racing events remained central to the circuit until 1957, as six motorcycle manufacturers were based in Nuremberg at the time, but a crisis in the industry led to no racing events taking place in 1958 and 1959.<ref name="norisring1950" /><ref name="norisringcars">{{cite web|url=https://norisring.de/neustart-auf-vier-raedern/|last=Voigt|first=Alexandra|title=Ein Neustart auf vier Rädern|website=Norisring.de|date=June 2004 |publisher=MCN GmbH / e.V.|language=de-DE|access-date=2022-01-10}}</ref>

Although [[auto racing|automobile racing]] events were held at the circuit as early as 1948 and on its revival in 1960, they would only become the venue's primary focus after the [[Norisring Nürnberg 200 Speedweekend|Norisring Trophy]] was introduced in 1967. During the 1970s and 1980s, [[sports prototype]] racing was popular at the Norisring and motorcycle racing events were abandoned after 1976.<ref name="norisring1950" /><ref name="norisringcars" /> The [[World Sportscar Championship]] events that took place in [[1986 100 Miles of Norisring|1986]] and [[1987 200 Miles of Norisring|1987]] each attracted more than 100,000 spectators to the circuit.<ref name="norisringcars" /> After the 1980s, the venue switched its primary focus to [[touring car racing]]. In [[2000 Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters|2000]], the premier Germany-based touring car series was revived under the [[Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters]] moniker and the annual ''Norisringrennen'' became the circuit's most important event.

The ''Norisringrennen'' traditionally takes place halfway through the Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters season in late June or early July. The race, which regularly attracts between 100,000 and 140,000 spectators to the circuit, is considered a highlight of the touring car series, as fans get closer to the action and the drivers than on modern venues.<ref name="norisring2000">{{cite web|url=https://norisring.de/zeitgeschichte-2000-2019/|title=2000 – 2019|website=Norisring.de|date=17 January 2020 |publisher=MCN GmbH / e.V.|language=de-DE|access-date=2022-01-12}}</ref> Since [[2015 Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters|2015]], there has been one race on Saturday and one race on Sunday.<ref name="norisring2000" />

After the beginning of the [[2020 Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters|2020 season]] was postponed due to the [[COVID-19 pandemic]], the ''Norisringrennen'' was planned to take place in mid-July as the season opener, but it was eventually cancelled in accordance with the restrictions on public events in Nuremberg.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://de.motorsport.com/dtm/news/einen-tag-nach-neuem-dtm-kalender-norisring-auftakt-abgesagt-20060403/4801445/|title=Nach neuem DTM-Kalender: Norisring-Auftakt abgesagt!|last=Haidinger|first=Sven|website=[[Motorsport.com]]|language=de-DE|date=2020-06-04|access-date=2022-01-08}}</ref> As the [[2021 Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters|2021 season]] began in late June, it was known that the ''Norisringrennen'' would not take place during the summer, but by the end of July the circuit was confirmed as the venue for the season finale in October for the first time in its history.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://de.motorsport.com/dtm/news/offiziell-bestaetigt-norisring-traegt-dtm-saisonfinale-2021-aus-21072802/6637995/|title=Offiziell bestätigt: Norisring trägt DTM-Saisonfinale 2021 aus|website=[[Motorsport.com]]|language=de-DE|date=2021-07-28|access-date=2022-01-08}}</ref> In [[2022 Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters|2022]], the ''Norisringrennen'' returned to its traditional spot in the race calendar, and a round of the [[TCR Europe Touring Car Series]] was run in support of the main event for the first time.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.dtm.com/en/news/dtm-announces-2022-race-calendar|title=Six countries, nine events, 18 races: DTM announces 2022 race calendar|website=DTM.com|language=en-UK|date=2021-09-03|access-date=2022-01-08}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|url=https://europe.tcr-series.com/index.php/news/item/tcr-europe-to-join-dtm-platform-for-three-events-in-2022|title=TCR Europe to join DTM platform for three events in 2022|date=1 February 2022|accessdate=7 February 2022|publisher=TCR Europe}}</ref>

Due to its proximity to the ''Dutzendteich'' lake and its location inside a large city, the Norisring has been compared to the [[Circuit de Monaco]].<ref name="construction" />

==Layout==

Different configurations were used in the early years of the circuit, including figure-8 layouts. Until 1972, the track length varied between {{convert|2|km|mi|abbr=on}} and {{convert|4|km|mi|abbr=on}}, before being permanently set to {{convert|2.300|km|mi|abbr=on}}. The start-finish straight in front of the central grandstand, the ''Steintribüne'', leads to a right-hand sweeper, followed by a left-hand U-turn that is located near the [[Grundig]] tower and called the ''Grundigkehre''. After the U-turn, the track heads back to the ''Steintribüne'' via a left-hand sweeper, with the ''Schöller-S'' right-left chicane placed between the sweeper and the back straight. This is the place where cars often touch the outside wall. After a right-hand kink, a left-hand U-turn called the ''Dutzendteichkehre'' leads back to the main straight via a flat-out left-hand kink.

The Norisring is laid out on streets that are otherwise used for public traffic. The construction of the circuit begins two weeks before the race weekend. It includes installing {{convert|7|km|mi|abbr=on}} of [[traffic barrier|crash barriers]], {{convert|6|km|mi|abbr=on}} of [[Glossary_of_motorsport_terms#Catch_fence|catch fencing]] and several temporary [[bleacher|stands]]. After the race weekend, the equipment is removed from the area within a week.<ref name="construction">{{cite web|url=https://www.motorsport-total.com/dtm/news/10000-arbeitsstunden-pro-saison-so-entsteht-der-kultkurs-norisring-19021601|title=10.000 Arbeitsstunden pro Saison: So entsteht der Kultkurs Norisring|last=Friese|first=Rebecca|website=Motorsport-Total.com|language=de-DE|date=2019-02-16|access-date=2022-01-10}}</ref>

==Fatalities==

Mexican racing driver [[Pedro Rodríguez (racing driver)|Pedro Rodríguez]] died at the Norisring in 1971 when the [[Ferrari 512]] he was hired to drive (in championship events, he used to race a [[John Wyer|Gulf Racing]]-[[Porsche 917]]) hit the bridge wall before the ''Schöller-S'' and burst into flames. Afterwards, the track was shortened by moving the ''Grundigkehre'' U-turn closer in order to reduce corner speeds. In 2006, a memorial plaque was inaugurated at the site of the crash.

In 1988, Hungarian racing driver [[Csaba Kesjár]] died after crashing into the barriers at the ''Dutzendteichkehre'' during a practice session in the [[German Formula Three Championship]].
