Question for Nurburgring experts
When they run races using the full track - combining the new Nurburgring GP circuit & old Nordschleife - why do they bypass the Mercedes Arena and take the short cut between points 1 and 5 above?
Combined circuit is obviously massive - with more than enough corners - so including or bypassing this is almost immaterial - it's just confusing me. What is the rationale for cutting this specific section out? It doesn't affect the connection points between the old and new circuits....so

Re: Question for Nurburgring experts
Could it be something to do with max length or lap time of a race?

Always seemed like a silly Micky mouse bit added on to increase the lap length of the standalone circuit anyway. Hadn’t even noticed they didn’t use it when running the full setup.

Because its used as extra paddock space (I had to google for the answer).
