Nürburgring (D)<br />
Round 5 – 08/08/<strong>2010</strong><br />
Martin Tomczyk<br />
“I feel very comfortable on the Nürburgring and have a<br />
great time there – as demonstrated by my two wins there in<br />
2007 and 2009. I was also out in front in every qualifying<br />
session last year, so I am obviously feeling good about<br />
returning to this circuit. It doesn’t feature one specific<br />
make-or-break section, so a good result at the Nürburgring<br />
is partly down to driving it with a very fluid rhythm.<br />
Overtaking is easiest at the end of the long straight past<br />
the start/finish by the arena or after the back straights<br />
just before the chicane. This circuit is also great fun in the<br />
rain – two years ago, we performed the qualifying sessions<br />
in torrential rain.”<br />
