Ferrari wins at Nuerburgring (old and new circuit since 1950: 14 (1951, 1952, 1953, 1956, 1963, 1964, 1972, 1974, 1985, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2004, 2006). McLaren: Three (1976, 1984, 1998). Circuit details: Nestling in the wooded Eifel mountains south of Cologne, the old track was regarded as the most challenging in the world until it was taken off the calendar in 1976 following Austrian Niki Lauda's near-fatal crash. Lauda suffered severe burns and was saved by four fellow drivers who dragged him from his blazing car. A shorter track opened again in 1982 and Formula One returned for the 1984 and 1985 seasons. The track was modified again in 2002 with a new stadium section. The weather is often damp and cloudy, and has played a decisive part in previous races.
