The Austrian GP hasn’t always been a part of the F1 calendar and was made a regular in the F1 calendar in 2014. This season’s Austrian GP is set to take place from June 30 to July 2 at Red Bull’s home turf, the Red Bull Ring.
Mercedes have dominated this event since its reintroduction and have won at this circuit five times in the past nine years. Two-time champion Max Verstappen has also seen some success here, winning three times from 2018 to 2021. Red Bull will look to continue their domination as they currently are top of both, Drivers’ and Constructors’ standings.
