GP and Nordschleife for timed track days. Touristenfahrten forbid timekeeping for everyone in the car, including a coach in the passenger seat. Leave timers off on TF; use coach logging on closed events that allow timing.

Going for Touristenfahrten?
Public TF rides follow German road rules. No timekeeping is permitted, including BTG times, whether the phone is with the driver or a coach in the passenger seat.

Respect the Fahrordnung
Official rules forbid any timekeeping on Touristenfahrten. Switch every timing device off before you start, including a coach phone.

No coach timer on TF
Right-seat logging with the lap timer on still counts as timekeeping. Save that workflow for closed events that allow timing.

Talk, then debrief parked
A passenger can help with eyes-up awareness. Keep formal coaching with session logging for authorized or closed sessions, not public TF.
Why LapsHub at the Ring
Drivers travel to Nürburg for GP track days, closed Nordschleife events, and Touristenfahrten. LapsHub keeps GP, Nordschleife, and BTG as separate catalog tracks so you pick the layout that matches the day.
On closed sessions where timing is allowed, record with phone GPS or RaceBox, or let a coach log from the right seat. On Touristenfahrten, leave every timer off.
FAQ
Is timing allowed on Touristenfahrten?
No. Official Nürburgring driving regulations forbid any timekeeping during tourist rides, including so-called BTG lap times. Every timing device must be switched off before you start, including a coach or passenger phone.
Can a coach time from the passenger seat on TF?
No. Who holds the phone does not matter. If the lap timer is on during Touristenfahrten, it violates the published Fahrordnung. Use coach logging on closed events that allow timing.
What is BTG at the Nürburgring?
BTG means Bridge to Gantry, the tourist-session stretch of the Nordschleife. In LapsHub, Nordschleife BTG is the catalog reference for that layout. It is not an invitation to time TF.
When can I time at the Ring?
On closed GP or Nordschleife events where organizers allow timing. Select Nürburgring GP or full Nordschleife for those sessions.
