The first free practice was cancelled due to the weather conditions at the Nürburgring and it looks like the second free practice will also be a challenge. The time will start at 14:00, but the pit lane will remain closed for the time being. This means that you can't get on the track.

Wait until half-past three (local time)

This morning's situation repeats itself this afternoon at the Nürburgring. The weather conditions are too severe for the medical helicopter to take off safely. As a result, the second free practice cannot start for the time being.

At 15:30 (local time) there will be a new update and if the weather is not better for the helicopter to take off then there is a good chance that the second session will also fall into the water.
