Is that a Starting Grid marked out on what was once Hitlers old stomping ground?

yes I'm watching Mr Frys program about Wagner...

Its the Norisring, its mainly a street circuit but has the start and finish bit there

Yep, it's the Norisring!

I didn't know it under the name of Zeppeleinfeld, and i was about to say there was another Nazi showground that's now a racetrack

...obviously it was the same one...

edit- is does make it awkward when people talk of the Nuremberg-ring, as they mean another one, even though there is another ring race track at Nuremberg

Ah ha! Good stuff thanks.

(Searching for Nuremberg and race brings up a lot. But not much about car racing.)

I'm pretty sure I have a racing game that features that track and the DTM racing...
