Welcome to Hockenheim, Germany for the tenth round of the LFRS World Championship!

Hockenheim is just about the fastest track on the calender, and a real car and driver tester. With some of the longest straights in F1, low downforce is the way to go with set-up. You will however run into the perennial problem of low downforce on the straights means the car very hard to drive in the stadium and chicanes, and you need to attack the chicanes to get a fast lap here.

History: The chicanes at Hockenheim always catch some one out, and when lapping people they can be plain dangerous! In 1982, one of the most extraordinary incidents accidents occurred when Nelson Piquet, leading the race in his Brahbam BMW came up on Elizo Salazar to lap him. Salazar ended up in the wrong place at the wrong time and managed to punt Piquet into the wall. When the two cars came to a stop, Piquet, calmly go out of his broken car, walked up to Salazar, the punched and kicked him, right in front of the TV cameras!! Was this the first ever incidence of 'road rage'?
