Hello and welcome to live text commentary from the German Grand Prix at Hockenheim!

There's a bit of a stink brewing in Germany over Red Bull's torque map irregularities (try not to get too hot under the collar), but the long and short of it is that Red Bull are not in trouble for now. Ominously, Mercedes principal Ross Brawn has said that this probably isn't the end of the matter.

The weather looks pretty good - some white clouds in the sky, but lots of blue as well, and we're set for a dry race. That could be what makes this race unpredictable - the teams haven't had much running in the dry this weekend to get their times right.
