Hope it wasnt anyone else we know.



why is it so important who it was? And what difference does it make if we know him or not?
Personally I don't want anybody to come home with a 20k loss...

If the guy want to remain silent, so be it. Respect it.

Bottom line is,unless it excludes the Ring by name, you're covered.They will also have to pay the armco bill too.I know that for a fact.

Uwe, as someone asked if it was my husband, I kind of thought it was nice to let them know that it wasnt.  

However, I know the Mark in question and as far as I am aware nobody is trying to make him speak, Just wishing that it had not happened to him,  I do not wish any harm to anybody or their property, whether I know them or not.

I was unaware that it was not allowed to hope that those you know are safe and well.

I want everybody to be safe and well. Doesn't matter if I know them or not.
It just sounds strange to me if I read/hear comments excluding people we don't know, like it wouldn't matter if they are not safe and well. I am sure that was not your intention at all.
In the end we are all crazy petrolheads no matter if we know each other or not.
For my part, I would have never ever mentioned anything about that crash if not everybody was unhurt in the first place.
Going fast around the Ring is always risky, doesn't matter how many laps you have done. Even the locals do get in trouble from time to time.
I have seen too many cars of my friends lying on the roof in the past, so I might be a little bit oversensitive on that subject.

Hope you didn't take offence, if so my apolgise.

Uwe

I took no offence.

Believe me when I say that I am no newcomer to what can happen on the ring.

Interesting point! But was there ever an accident with a coach? Doubt it.

Hi Uwe

Just wanted to know all was OK and if I knew him from August/Croft/Cadwell/Silverstone......I hope he gets it sorted out satisfactory

You always have to be "aware" in a hypersensitive way when you drive the Ring and exponentially on Open days

in the terms and conditions of the elephant insurance policy it states you are not covered on deristricted toll roads. is the ring a deristricted toll road?

if so i prob wasnt insured when i was at the ring last?

In the Ring car park by the ticket office,there is a large sign in German and English with the rules of using the Ring,I'm 99% sure that the Ring is classed by Nurburgring GMBH as " deristricted toll road ". Maybe someone who is going soon can confirm this ?
