2025 Japanese Grand Prix start time: how to watch, live stream and F1 schedule
Formula 1 arrives in Japan for the third round of the 2025 season, with McLaren still seen as favourite but with plenty of intrigue to see who can challenge the…
Germany has fallen off the Formula 1 calendar once again, despite the country providing the newest World Champion.
The calendar is reduced to 20 Grands Prix, with question marks still hanging over Montreal and Interlagos – two more of the old, more entertaining, guard. The full list is at the bottom of this page.
Take a look back at five of F1’s greatest German races, chosen via our 100 Greatest Grand Prix special. It’s available to read for free in the Motor Sport app.
Nuvolari’s greatest win. The home favourites were numerous, and hungry; Nuvolari 42 and in an aging and under-powered Alfa. The little Italian outlasted them all – Caracciola, von Brauchitsch, Faglioli, Stuck, Varzi, Rosemeyer – to claim an unlikely victory.
Juan Manuel Fangio’s finest hour. A pitstop lost him almost a minute to the Ferraris of Mike Hawthorn and Peter Collins, but with a lap to go he was back in front. The lap record, his own, shattered on the way by a full 23 seconds, 11 seconds faster than he’d lapped the Nürburgring to set pole.
The daunting prospect of the Nürburgring, pouring, persistent rain; the worst of combinations for safety advocate Jackie Stewart. Yet two hours and 20 minutes later he crossed the line for his greatest win. Four minutes later Graham Hill followed, his nearest challenger.
Another greatest drive, that of Hill. Harried by Gurney and Surtees, he held them at bay by just 2.5s. Jim Clark in fourth drove a wild unfamiliar race, riled by his own startline mistake that dropped him to 10th.
Ten laps of Nuvolari v Caracciola v Rosemeyer. Caratsch retired, leaving the two to duel. And as visibility deterioated Caracciola accelerated. Nuvolari could do nothing but accept second as the German disappeared into the mist.
