Hockenheim remains on the calendar

Bernie Ecclestone told Reuters that this year's German Grand Prix will be held at the Hockenheim racetrack, although it is expected to be replaced by the Nurburgring for the eighth time.

The Hockenheim and Nurburgring have alternated between the German Grand Prix since 2008, and the latter was next in line for this year’s race. But Ecclestone said Formula One will not return to the Nurburgring this year.

“The race will be in Hockenheim,” he said. "We have a contract with them, so we just have to fix the part where it says that the race alternates with the Nurburgring."

The Nurburgring is currently changing ownership, and race organizers in Hockenheim came across some criticism last year for poor spectator turnout. The German Grand Prix will be broadcast on 19 July.
