Nurburgring Traffic Jam with Near-Crash

What you see here is nothing else than a traffic jam on the Nurburgring... what’s the world coming to? why would you buy a fast car and take it to the ‘Ring in order to keep it in a leash?
The supercar crowd gathered during a closed event called Scuderia Hanseat and could have brought more n negative consequences than boredom, frustration and wasted fuel. As you can see in the video (shot by Youtube user Gjis), a Porsche closely misses another Porsche (at the 1:30 mark) when all the cars suddenly break.

The situation reminds us of the serious eight-car crash that took place on the Nordschlleife last month and raises an important question: since the ‘Ring’s management has raised the entry fees, why don’t they invest some of the money into making the track safer?
