Germany enjoyed an incredible run of success in F1, with Schumacher and then168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: Sebastian Vettel dominating with 🅠11 title wins ac🐲ross a 19-year period.

While Vettel struggled to win over the German crowd like Schumacher 🌠did, the sport still flourished, with the German Grand Prix regularly featuring on the calendar up until 2018. 

However, since then, Germany has suffered with no grand prix - besides a trip to the Nurburgring in the COVID-affected 2020 season, and Vettel no longer running at the front of the 🐈field before retiring at the end of last year.

With no nat𝓡ive driver or German GP, it’s no surprise to hear reports that they’re struggling to find a free-to-air TV partner for F1 2023.

Former vice-president of Mercedes’ motorsport activity Norbert Haug described the situation as a “tragedy” and ꦇa “shame”.

Mercedes are Germany’s best hope of F1 success, with the Silver Arrows receivi🍰ng support fr🐼om an unlikely source in Marko.

“It’s incredible what’s happening in Germany right now,” he told Sport1.“In Austria it is exactly the opposite. F1 is booming more than ever before. The Red Bull team is seen as the Austrian national team and the whole country is cheer✃ing on that.”

“That’s why I even hope that Mercedes will be st💦rong again so that the Germans will identify with them.”

F1 boss Stefano Domenicali co❀uldn’t understand why Germany “couldn’t build an event around a 🥃grand prix.

“The Grand Prix has to be worthwhile for all parties. We can’t cover all the costs,” he told Bild. “It’s a mystery to me how y🧔ou can’t build an event around a grand prix these days.

“But if they do well⛦, we’ll have another r✤ace in Germany.”
