The Commission is investigating suspected anti-competitive state aid for the Nürburgring race track. This is the Commission’s response to a court ruling from 2021, in which the European Court of Justice ruled that the Commission must re-examine whether the sale of the Nürburgring in 2014 involved the granting of state aid. According to the EU’s highest court, the Commission had not sufficiently investigated whether the once state-owned facility was wrongly sold at a lower price than possible.
