It's official - F1 is heading back to the Nurburgring and Imola. To mark the occasion, here are onboards of the two pole position laps from F1's last visits to each circuit, starting with Michael Schumacher's pole lap at Imola in 2006 for Ferrari.

The second onboard lap comes from 2013 - the last time F1 raced at the Nurburgring. Pole that year went to Lewis Hamilton, who was in his first season for Mercedes at the time. Will the Briton capture another pole at the Eifel circuit this year?
