The 2015 German Grand Prix was supposed to be at Nurburgring this year in an alternating arrangement with Hockenheim but instead will officially return to Hockenehim for the upcoming Formula One racing season. Nurburgring is under new ownership and had yet to form a contract with F1 chief Bernie Ecclestone for the 2015 season, so Ecclestone put the race back at Hockenheim [on July 19, 2015] for at least one more year.
Hockenheim first hosted Formula One races in 1970.
The first race of the 2015 Formula One racing season takes place in Melbourne, Australia on March 15, 2015.
