Mercedes offered to help Hockenheim host F1 race
Print Edition
FORMULA One world champion Mercedes has revealed that it tried to keep the German Grand Prix on this year’s calendar but an offer of financial assistance was rejected and the race was struck off.
“The German GP is a core race on the Formula One calendar and we have a significant interest in this race taking place,” the German carmaker said in a statement. “Mercedes-Benz has participated in discussions and offered a significant contribution to support a successful German GP, at the Hockenheimring, in 2015. This offer was unfortunately not accepted.”
Formula One’s governing body, the International Automobile Federation, issued a revised calendar on Friday with Germany absent for the first time since 1960. The Nuerburgring had been due to host the July 19 race under an alternation agreement but a change of ownership and financial difficulties left Hockenheim as the only option.
