Watch German Grand Prix online

You can watch live coverage of the German Grand Prix from the Nurburgring live on the web.

The BBC Sport website will show not only qualifying and the race, but the Friday practice sessions as well.

The first practice session will take place on Friday at 0900BST, with a second session at 1300BST.

On Saturday, a further practice session at 1000BST will be followed by qualifying at 1300BST.

The race will take place at 1300BST on Sunday, with coverage beginning at 1210BST.

Once again, the race is overshadowed by politics following further disagreements between the FIA and Fota over a budget cap to be imposed on the teams next season.

On the track, Sebastien Vettel will be hoping to repeat his success at Silverstone last time out when he won his second race of the season.

However, championship leader Jenson Button still holds a 25-point advantage over his rival, and he will be hoping to return to winning ways on the famous circuit.

The Nurburgring bears little resemblance to the old 14-mile course where the German Grand Prix used to be held. This track offers a mix of low- and high-speed corners with few overtaking opportunities.
