2016 German GP

The final race before the summer break will be at the Hockenheimring in Germany. The tire choices will be the same as Hungary, Supersoft, Soft, and Medium. Here are the headlines entering Germany.

New Points Leader

With Hamilton's win in Hungary, he has taken the championship lead away from teammate Nico Rosberg. Nico will have a clear home-field advantage over his championship rival so this will be the most important race of the season before the break.

Radio Ga Ga...Radio Goo Goo

Oh dear, we had another victim of the radio regulations. This time, it was McLaren driver Jenson Button getting the penalty. The regulations seem to be giving every team a headache and putting more pressure on the drivers to fend for themselves.

Here are the numbers for the German GP:

3: 3 circuits have hosted the German GP

1987: The last time Ferrari didn't score points in Germany

164: German drivers have a combined 164 wins all time in F1

18: In 2000, Rubens Barrichello won the German GP from the 18th starting position

44: 44 drivers from Germany have competed in F1.

Another F1 race, another win for Mercedes. Red Bull drivers Verstappen and Ricciardo round out the podium
