Formula 1: Fog prevents Eifel Grand Prix first practice

Formula 1 was unable to run first practice at the Eifel Grand Prix because of bad weather. The Nurburgring was cloaked in fog and damp weather and the medical helicopter was unable to fly. The nearest suitable hospital is too far away by road for F1 officials to run the session in the context of the risk of an accident and potential driver injury. The lack of running meant Mick Schumacher and Callum Ilott were unable to have their first run in an F1 car on a grand prix weekend. World champion Lewis Hamilton enters the weekend with the chance to equal Schumacher’s all-time record of 91 grand prix victories.
