Jan Magnussen at the wheel of a ZR1: Drops 'Ring time by 4 secs to 7:22.4

That's pretty impressive. But I have officially lost all faith in the significance of Ring times.

I haven't. Anyone that knew the track well before this all stated happening will respect it.

I do believe that a better driver is the real difference but still impressive non the less.

I really don't know all the ins and outs of 'Ring testing. I just know there's many different circumstances under which cars are tested. If there was a standard method of doing it then I would put in a lot more faith.

Its pretty simple really.

1. Street tires.
2. Cross the line
3. Do the lap
4. Finish over the line.

Factors:

weather: To say this is changing is stupid because how do you expect to have exact same conditions over an 7-8 mile loop?

Traffic: You can pay for the track to be closed off.

Everything else is what gives the Northloop its charachter as a public toll road.

There are certain things in this world that tuner fans will never taint and the Nurburgring is one of those things.
