Following a historic and frantic triple-header of races, Formula 1 returns from a weekend off for the German Grand Prix. 

After a season away, the German Grand Prix returns to the F1 calendar in 2018, with the Hockenheimring playing host to the race. 

Sebastian Vettel’s British Grand Prix moved him eight points clear of chief title rival Lewis Hamilton heading to the Ferrari driver’s home race. 

But Hamilton, who won the last German GP in 2016, will be looking to get one over on Vettel after being unable to deny him the win on home soil at Silverstone. Will Hockenheim provide another twist in the ever-changing championship picture?

The referenced media source is missing and needs to be re-embedded.
