The 2012 German Grand Prix, formally the Formula 1 Grosser Preis Santander von Deutschland 2012,[1] was a Formula One motor race that took place on 22 July 2012 as the tenth round of the 2012 season.[3] After being held at the Nürburgring in 2011,[4] the race returned to the Hockenheimring in Baden-Württemberg, making the 2012 race the thirty-third time the circuit hosted the German Grand Prix, and the eighth time the shortened circuit hosted the race since its 2002 redesign.
Ferrari driver Fernando Alonso got his 22nd pole position before going on to win the race.[5] This race would see Michael Schumacher set his 77th and final fastest lap in Formula One, a record he still holds as of 2024[update].
