Former F1 driver Timo Glock, who was also part of the #69 Dörr Motorsport McLaren crew during the Nürburgring 24h, had his DMSB Nordschleife Permit stripped.
www.gpblog.comTimo Glock was disqualified from the Nürburgring 24 Hours after stewards revoked his Nordschleife DMSB license for a Code 60 speeding violation, leading to an immediate race DSQ and the loss of his DPN license. He was driving the Dörr Motorsport McLaren in the #69 lineup.
