Nürburgring instead of Norisring – F4 Germany must adjust its 2027 race calendar

Seven events as part of the DTM and the ADAC Racing Weekend make up the inaugural season of the F4 German Championship. The round at the Norisring, originally scheduled for July, will be replaced by a race weekend on the Nürburgring Sprint Circuit.

The F4 German Championship has finalised its race calendar for the 2027 season. From May to October, the new German Formula 4 Championship will visit six circuits in Germany and Austria. Four events will take place as part of the DTM, with a further three at the ADAC Racing Weekend.

A race on the Nürburgring Sprint Circuit as part of the ADAC Racing Weekend from 16 to 18 July 2027 completes the calendar. A planned race at the Norisring cannot yet be held next year due to structural modifications to the circuit required for formula cars.

The inaugural season kicks off with the DTM weekend from 7 to 9 May in Oschersleben. F4 Germany will then travel to the Lausitzring alongside the DTM from 18 to 20 June.

This is followed in July by two events as part of the ADAC Racing Weekend: after the first Nürburgring round from 16 to 18 July, the Red Bull Ring is on the programme from 30 July to 1 August. The race weekend in Austria is also the only international round of the season.

From 20 to 22 August, the championship returns to the Nürburgring Sprint Circuit as part of the DTM. The penultimate round takes place from 24 to 26 September alongside the DTM at the Sachsenring. Just one week later, the title will be decided during the inaugural season at the ADAC Racing Weekend at the Hockenheimring from 1 to 3 October.

By combining the DTM and the ADAC Racing Weekend, F4 Germany brings young formula drivers to established motorsport platforms. The calendar combines challenging circuits with the opportunity to showcase their talents to a wide motorsport audience and gain valuable experience for the next steps in formula racing.

The F4 Germany organisers have already unveiled a packed field of entrants. Among them is LN4 Fusion, the team of reigning Formula 1 World Champion Lando Norris. The DTM team Comtoyou Racing and the Vanwell team, known from the FIA WEC, will also be competing. SPEEDWEEK has summarised the field of entrants for you.
