Spielberg will be one of the theaters of the Formula 1 until 2027, the premier category of motorsport having signed a four-year contract extension with the route of the Austrian Grand Prix. THE Red Bull Ring returned to the premier category world championship calendar in 2014. This extension therefore celebrates the 10th anniversary of the return of the event to the course of the 20 drivers and 10 teams of the discipline.

For the second year in a row, the Red Bull Ring will host the alternative format of a race weekend with Sprint Qualifying. The classic qualifications will therefore take place on Friday, the sprint on Saturday which will determine the starting grid for the race on Sunday.

« The Austrian Grand Prix brings together the perfect blend of a demanding, high-speed track, and provides a magnificent setting for our fans, so I'm delighted to know that we will be returning to the Red Bull Ring at least until 2027 thanks to this new agreement, welcomes Stefano Domenicali, President of Formula 1. As we celebrate the 10th anniversary of our return, I would like to thank everyone for this revival, especially the promoter and Red Bull and I want to pay tribute to Dietrich Mateschitz for the love, passion and vision he brings to Formula 1 to ensure the continued success of the event and the great enthusiasm for our sport in Austria and everywhere else. »

 

« We are proud to have this special partnership with Formula 1, and excited to welcome the epitome of motorsport to the Red Bull Ring for the next four years, continues Erich Wolf, Managing Director of Projekt Spielberg GmbH & Co KG. By signing this contract extension, Formula 1 is making a strong commitment to Austria, Styria and the Murtal region. We are entering the 10th year of this partnership, and we want to celebrate this milestone with all fans of the sport and thank them for their loyalty and the great atmosphere it generates. Everyone is invited to take part in a great racing weekend at Spielberg in 2023. »

And the appointment is given from June 30 to July 2 on the circuit where Charles Leclerc won last year, ahead of Max Verstappen et Lewis Hamilton.

Not really a surprise with the presence of Red Bull! With a reevaluated contract or not?
