Feedback

The German Grand Prix at the Hockenheimring used to be all about raw horsepower. It was a flat out blast around a 4.2 mile tree-lined track then into the stadium section that houses the fans. It made sense to shorten the track to 2.8 miles so that the fans would see the cars more often. That done, the German fans are now able to fire more rockets and sound their fog horns a greater number of times, as their favorites come by. The color and sound is breathtaking with a sea of red that far outdoes that of any other track.

Not far from the Hockenheimring is the magnificent city of Heidelberg, the most beautiful city in Germany, with its wonderful historic castle above the Old Bridge that crosses the Neckar River. Heidelberg`s 14th century Church of the Holy Spirit is in the center of town and is close to your hotel. The cobble-stone streets around the church are alive with cafes, bars, restaurants and abundant shopping. Getting around Heidelberg is easy with the tram system and taxis are plentiful. In the evening there is no shortage of good restaurants, and the night life ranges from beer gardens to nightclubs.

If you have not attended the German Grand Prix, we highly recommend it; it is unlike any other race on the schedule.
