Jackie Stewart, a Formula One driver who raced during the 1960s and 70s, refers to this dangerous track in Germany as The Green Hell. It was the site of the near-death accident of Austrian Niki Lauda in 1976 where he tried to cancel that Grand Prix over safety concerns. Since that time, safety measures, such as shortening the course and adjusting technical aspects, have been implemented, it still has numerous challenging corners. Although numbers are not confirmed, there have been anywhere from fifty-two to more than sixty-eight driver fatalities at the track.
