Watch here on Sunday from 11.30am as Max Verstappen returns to the Nordschleife to continue his preparations for May's Nurburgring 24 Hours during a double-header weekend of races in the German track's endurance series.
There will be a minute's silence ahead of the start of Sunday's second four-hour race from the weekend.
Driver Juha Miettinen died following a multi-car crash that saw Saturday's race suspended. Verstappen led the tributes to the 66-year-old following the incident.
With F1 off track in April due to the cancellation of the Bahrain and Saudi Arabian Grands Prix, Verstappen has added the NLS4 and NLS5 races to his growing GT3 schedule.
He has teamed up with experienced endurance driver Lucas Auer, the nephew of former F1 driver Gerhard Berger, in the Red Bull-livered Mercedes-AMG GT3 car for Verstappen Racing in a 37-strong GT3 field at 'The Green Hell' in the latest rounds of the Nurburgring Langstrecken-Serie.

It will be the fourth time that four-time F1 world champion Verstappen has raced in GT3 machinery in the NLS.
He won on his debut last September in a Ferrari 296 GT3 car he shared with Britain's Chris Lulham.
He and his team-mates, this time driving the Mercedes, again finished first on Verstappen's return to NLS action last month but were later disqualified due to the team exceeding the permitted tyre allocation.
