S8 E6: Nürburgring 1999

On this week’s episode of Stories From SuperTouring, Alex and Levi are joined by touring car journalist Andrew Charman and motorsport photographer Greg Denton to look back at the dramatic finale to the 1999 STW Cup season at the Nürburgring — the final chapter of Germany’s Super Touring era.

With the championship disappearing at the end of the season, the title fight came down to a final showdown between Christian Abt and Uwe Alzen, as Audi and Opel battled for one last piece of STW history.

Together, they revisit the atmosphere surrounding the final weekend of the championship, the intensity of the title battle, and the significance of STW’s place in the wider Super Touring story.

Factory rivalry, controversy, and one final showdown before the curtain came down on an era.
