There is no rest for the wicked in Formula One. Just one week after Pirelli’s woes peaked at Silverstone, the teams are back on the road and visiting the legendary Nurburgring for the German Grand Prix. The track may not be as fearsome as it was in the days of Hunt and Lauda, but it still poses a unique challenge to the drivers thanks to its stop-start nature and changes in elevation, requiring maximum concentration to tame as Sebastian Vettel found out to his cost back in 2011.

I'm not a fan of the new (current) F1 circuit at Nurburg. Screw it, make 'em go around the old 14-miles of Green Hell.
 
Looks like Vettel and Webber could tangle this race, Webber keeping up with Vettel.
