Who won German Grand Prix?
A
Max Verstappen
B
Sebastian Vettel
C
Lewis Hamilton
D
Kimi Raikkonen
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -There is no longer a German Grand Prix on the calendar and no GP weekend in Germany is planned on the 2023 calendar either. According to F1 boss Stefano Domenicali, this is mainly due to the lack of interest from the Germans themselves.

Detailed explanation-2: -There have been seven race winners from Germany, with Michael Schumacher having by far the most victories (91). Vettel scored 53 wins and Nico Rosberg won 23. Ralf Schumacher won six Grands Prix and Heinz-Harald Frentzen won three.

Detailed explanation-3: -The Nürburgring went through a change of ownership during 2014, but the new owners were unable to sign an agreement to continue hosting the race in odd-numbered years. The Hockenheimring wasn’t able to host the 2015 or 2017 events either and the German Grand Prix was not run.

Detailed explanation-4: -Why was Formula One (F1) stopped at the Nürburgring Nordschleife? Not enough access for emergency vehicles. This was painfully obvious after Lauda’s ‘76 crash there.
