since the Nordschleife is the only road in Germany on which you have to pay toll fees, you got to have a street legal car if you go for tourist driving.
So that means your car has to be insured, only a few insurance companys here have a clause that you can't go on the Nordschleife with your car.
If you crash there, it will be handeled as an accident on a normal road, police will show up and investigators will trace the accident's course of events
I'm not sure in which way insurance companys cover such incidents because theres a speed limit on the whole track, but your car is insured when you're on it, thats for sure.....its not a race event, you just paid money to drive on a 20,7km long circular country road xD
tbh I'm more careful when I'm on a Nürburgring Grand Prix course track day, because there you don't have any insurance, and if you go off you have to pay 180 € that the tow truck will come and pull you out off the gravel
