Pits and paddock on friday
A walk through the Coys Auction tent:
Saturday morning the whole Nürburgring-Area was wrapped in heavy fog, so there was no racing until noontime, but in fact the fog did not dissolve the whole day, so there were many delays and some races had to be cancelled.
Racing under these conditions was really dangerous, so many drivers went a bit slower, while others drove like maniacs with a visibility under 100 meters at some points of the track. As spectator you could barely see the track from the grandstands:
But however, there was more time to spend in the pits and the paddock on saturday:
