Default Sprintstrecke....?

Looking at the opening times of the Ring..... pretty much all of the touristfahrten sessions are just down as 'nordschleife'.

But the Saturday evening (28th May) is listed as 'Nordschleife & Sprintstrecke' - is this when they open the GP circuit up too so you can do a combined lap of the two?

If so, i'm liking that very much

Ah, like in GT5

Hopefully you'll be able to cross from the Nordschliefe into the F1 circuit rather than having to do it separately

Yes you can.

Saturday afternoon is VLN race which finishes at 4:00PM
The series uses both tracks linked so they usually leave it open for the evening session so you get 10% extra ring for no extra dosh

Yes, just a few weeks ago.

Just watch out for the bend at the end of the start finish straight!

There are others too.

Just why someone would put a sharp, blind, downhill, offcamber hairpin bend after such a fast straight is beyond me.

Just make sure your brakes are good!!
