The collision occurred three laps into today's qualifier race in Germany
Racing driver Juha Miettinen has died after a seven-car crash during the Nurburgring Langstrecken-Serie (NLS) qualifiers in Germany on Saturday.
The race was initially halted by a red flag before it was eventually suspended an hour later once the severity of the the multi-car collision became apparent.
Organisers said the race, which had earned extra attention due to the participation of Formula 1 driver Max Verstappen, would not resume on Saturday evening.
"Following the collision between several vehicles, race control immediately halted the race to allow for extensive recovery and rescue operations," the race organiser said in a statement.
