It's been too long in my book, the last race was in 1976 (not a great race for Lauda). Since then the circuit has hosted a load of top quality sport events and has seen a F1 car return to the circuit in recent months, with BMW allowing Heidfeld to drive several laps in the 2007 BMW Saubar F1 car.
With resurfacing, promotion, safety tweaks and better equipped marshals, would the FIA consider it?
It would make great television and the issue with covering the event with enough cameras could be solved with strategicly placed cameras, onboard footage and helicopter to cover the race leaders, scraps, accidents etc
I rate that track alongside Monza, Spa, Silverstone and Monaco and would dearly love to see F1 spec cars back there - the Nurburgring GP section, on its own, is just dull in comparison.
