Whast with the paint on the pavement Nurburing?

Question

I have seen quite a few pictures of cars on the Nurburing and i ve noticed that you can usually see a bunch of words or symbols painted onto the pavement. Ive noticed it in Forza 2 as well so i was wondering what it was. is it somthing use when theyre testing the cars or just graffiti or what?

Answer 1

I assume you are speaking of the old circuit which is referred to as the Nordschleife. This is the old F1 circuit and is 20.8 kilometers. For a small fee anyone can drive the circuit. As others have mentioned many parts of the circuit are covered with messages that are painted on the pavement. Many different statements are being made.

Answer 2

Most of it is just graffiti. The Nurburgring was Germany's first ever race circuit, and has been around since 1927.
