Many months ago I enjoyed the AMG challenges, especially when the corner names appeared on the screen. For those racers like me who want to know the Ring better, I found this very helpful video:

(tried to embed it but kept saying vid didn't exist. If anyone else can - my thanks)

This site is also superb:

You do realise that's not really its name though? That's just its (made up) English nickname that is the instruction of how to drive it. Miss the first apex, hit the 2nd one, miss the 3rd one.

Yeah, but it has certainly affected the way I attack that corner!!:scared:

I've heard it called "dreifach rechts", (literally: "right three times") too - slightly less useful as technical advice, though!

I like that many of the corners share names (e.g. Wehrseifen), given that they're named after an area / geological feature etc., rather than individually, which is properly old-school. :dopey:
