RAC won't recover me from the ring itself but they will collect you from the car park outside it, you have to pay ADAC for recovery from the ring to the car park....

As with all these companies, you'll only find out if it's money well spent if you need to use it....
To add to above:

Base fee for attendance of armco truck: €150
Removing damaged armco: €10/metre (x2 or x3 or x4 for multiple-height sections)
Replacement armco: €31/metre (x2 or x3 for double/triple height)
Removing damaged armco posts: €5.10 each
Replacing armco post: €39 each
Safety car attendance: €82 per 30 mins (car + 2 people)
Circuit closure: €1,350 per hour
Recovery truck: €250 (inc VAT)
Hospital stay & air ambulance: Let's just say, do NOT go there without travel insurance! (Though a European Health Card - which replaced the E111 - may cover the hospital bit.)
Everything except the recovery truck is then subject to 19% VAT.



So expect to pay at least €250 for recovery of you break down......

Recovery will be the least of your worries if anything major goes wrong
