Le Mans/Nürburgring : Ying and Yang for Fred Mako
10 Jun. 2022 ‧ 18:00
Fred Makowiecki, one of the best known names in endurance racing, will be taking part in the 24 Hours of Nürburgring and the 24 Hours of Le Mans in a fortnight. The official Porsche driver spoke to Endurance-Info about the combination of the two races in a very short time, the physical requirements, the safety, the fans, the GTE/GT3, the risks to be taken on the track, etc... An interview that allows a better understanding of what a driver goes through during two very demanding races but not for the same reasons.
Is it a problem to run two 24-hour races in two weeks ?
"It's not really a problem to do two 24-hour races in this short time. When you have just done one, it can be a problem to do another one a week later. Your performance level will be the same but not the freshness."
Is it better to do Nürburgring/Le Mans like this year or the other way round ?
