Can someone explain to me how is the insurance when driving on Nurburgring... I guess my normal insurance does not cover any accident there, right?
So is there any other insurance for the time I am lapping there?

No mate there is no insurrance at all if you crash its all yours, plus if someone makes a damage in the lap you pay also for the Ring, and if the situation is in the scope of the police also they can charge.
But I am sure, Steve and others can tell you it is no danger if you drive carefully and mature!
I did it and it was so much fun, others here also did it and nobody crashed (yet) of course you never can be sure and that is it also called "Gr?nne H?lle" green hell, sometimes the Nring bites, search here for more info, and do not be afraid the only part where for the first time I was afraid was the 1st carussel, but Tim and Steve are cool and show you all
ps, there are private insurrance companies who may insure you but you can imagine the price :'(

As far as I know the Nurburgring is consider a German state road where you pay a toll. So insurance should cover in case of accident. Probaby you would have to fight a bit but on the end they will pay.
Why the insurrance would pay you if you crash your car on the road, second the N?rburgring is indeed you are right a public toll road but the insurrance companies in EU have an exception of tracking!!! Even if you have an accident and they find out your car was juiced they cancel your contract as they think you were intended to speed. Speeding is sorry mates never covered under insurrance.
