Scuderia Hanseat

About Scuderia Hanseat

Scuderia Hanseat created Europe’s first sports driver courses in 1958. At that time, we were a small group of friends consisting of successful racing and rally drivers who wanted to pass on their experiences to sports drivers. At the time, “sports driver” was an expression for fairness and tolerance in sport and exemplary behaviour on the road. We were joined by like-minded friends with whom we were subsequently able to successfully continue our philosophy. The Scuderia Hanseat has been more than just a course for many years. The Scuderia stands for long friendships, for solidarity, for tradition, for a large family. We have been training at the Nürburgring since 1958. Today, the legendary Nordschleife and the attractive Grand Prix circuit, with their maximum standard of safety equipment, provide maximum safety for the course participants and absolute driving enjoyment with their gradients and countless curves. Today, Scuderia Hanseat is recognized far beyond national borders as a leading provider of courses for demanding drivers. Our concept has been copied many times and has also been adopted by many car manufacturers. The Scuderia Hanseat courses are highly respected for their quality in the German motor sport scene, and have been recognized by the DMSB (Deutscher Motor Sport Bund e.V.) for the training of racing drivers. We are supported at the Nürburgring by our pool of employees consisting of instructors, coaches and the safety team, which is made up of successful racing and rally drivers. Former participants who qualified by means of their excellent skills and also well-known professional instructors are now also members of the team. Two thirds of our participants on every course are enthusiastic repeaters, and we, the entire staff and the participants, have grown into a big, spiritual family. We all share a passion for car racing and fast, safe driving. More than half of our participants come from abroad. Many long-lasting international friendships have formed here during our courses.

It provides support during our events and keeps you up to date on current and next activities, remaining time, contact to the team as well as help in case of emergency.
