After another short break, Formula 1 is back in🍬 business a🌠s it returns to the Nurburgring for the Eifel Grand Prix. 

Havi🐼ng not been on the calendar since 2013, F1 returns to a legendaജry venue in the Nurburgring - home to the intimidating Nordschleife.

Given the time of year, the weather surely will play its part 🌊with cold and wet conditions expect𓆉ed throughout the duration of the weekend.

The Russian Grand Prix proved to be a decisiveꦆ one in the race for 2020 F1 dr﷽ivers' crown as Valtteri Bottas returned to winning ways at the Sochi Autodrom to claim his second race victory of the season.

The Finn endured a difficult qualifying session but bounced back in the race as overtook Max Verstappen at the start and then challenged teammate Lew♚is Hamilton into Turn 1.

Fortune seemed to favour Bottas on this occasion when Hamilton was handed tw🐎o separate time penalties for practice start infringements allowing Bottas and Max Verstappen to jump him through the stops.

Bottas went onto claim his second win in Russia ahead of Verst🎀appen and Hamilton.

The gap in the championship now sits at 44 points with seven roun♛ds remaiಌning.

In terms of the midfield fight, Sergio Perez headed the pack in fourth place in Russia - beating Daniel Ricciardo, w👍ho was the lead Renault in fifth.

McLaren sits third in the construc𒅌tors' championship, just two points💖 ahead of Racing Point, while Renault is a further five points back in fifth.
