Also in Germany Formula 1 will probably return this season. The date for the Hockenheim Grand Prix is not yet known, but the race is part of the possible fourth European triple pack. The timetable will be published soon.

According to the German outlet Auto, Motor und Sport, the news follows the announcement of the return of the Formula 1-circus in Mugello. The race in Italy is scheduled for September 13th, two weeks after the GP of Belgium. On September 27th the race will take place in Sochi, Russia.
 
The race in Germany would initially not be on the calendar, but because of the current situation in South America, the FIA does not consider it wise to race in countries like Brazil and the United States. The corona-raids there are still increasing at a rapid pace. The Grand Prix of China has been taken off the calendar for this season anyway. Therefore a possible return of Hockenheim, Portimao and even Imola are looked into for after the Russian Grand Prix. We are still investigating if a race in Vietnam is possible.
