The 1970 German Grand Prix was a Formula One race held at Hockenheimring on 2 August 1970.
On short notice following the drivers demand for improved safety at the Nürburgring, the race was moved to Hockenheim as this track already had been fitted with Armco. F1 returned to an updated Nürburgring in 1971.
