Ya quitaron el record de Spa a Hamilton con su F1 y parece que van a quitar el record de 6:11.13 del ring por Stefan Bellof con Porsche 956 en 1983:
The conditions would need to be ideal, but a time in the four-minute zone could be possible.
Porsche recently brought the 919 Hybrid Evo to the Nürburgring Nordschleife. While it didn't break the track record, the math suggests the beastly machine was definitely capable of setting the quickest time ever around the famous course. In ideal conditions, Porsche might even lap the circuit in a nearly unbelievable 4:51 – enough to crush Stefan Bellof's record of 6:11.13 in a Porsche 956 in 1983.
Misha Charoudin was trackside during the 919 Hybrid Evo's day at the Nordschleife and was able to time the fast laps. At its quickest, the car driven by last year's 24 Hours of Le Mans winner Timo Bernhard did a 6:20 lap. However, this time doesn't tell the whole story.
Bernhard was lifting on the final straightaway and slowing to enter the pits. Thankfully, Charoudin position put him next to a marshal's post where he could here the track radio. Officials checked in when the 919 passed them, which allowed for a way for Charoudin to calculate the section times when Bernhard was really pushing the car. Factoring in an estimate for the final four-kilometer (2.5-mile) section, Charoudin estimated the Porsche could have completed a circuit in 5:09.
As an additional caveat, the weather was quite warm, and the track was very hot on the day when the Porsche was at the Nordschleife. With better conditions, the 919 might be able to drop below the five-minute mark.
Charoudin predicts that Porsche might analyze the telemetry from these laps and return to the course during better conditions to crush the old record. There isn't hard evidence that this would actually happen, but Charoudin's logic makes sense to us.
