On this day in 2004, Michael Schumacher won his six consecutive race in the season after he started from the pole position at his home race at Hockenheim.

Gerhard Berger secured his tenth and final Formula One victory from pole position on this day in 1997 and set the fastest lap while Jarno Trulli took his first F1 points.

McLaren was the fastest in Germany in 2005, but instead of a convincing first row, Raikkonen and Montoya had problems in the last two corners at Hockenheim.
