–by Mark Cipolloni–

The Red Bull Ring will continue to host the Austrian Grand Prix until at least 2027 following a four-year extension to its contract.

The last race under the current agreement, set to take place 30 June – 02 July 2023, will celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Austrian Grand Prix’s return to the Formula 1 calendar, and feature an F1 Sprint for the second consecutive year.

“The Austrian Grand Prix brings together the perfect mix of a challenging track, high-speed racing, and a beautiful venue for our fans,” said Stefano Domenicali, “so I am delighted that we will be coming back to the Red Bull Ring until at least 2027 under this new agreement.

Start of the sprint race at the Austrian GP, 6-10 July 2022 at Red Bull Ring track. Max Verstappen ahead, then Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz; Formula 1 World championship 2022.

“As we celebrate the 10th year since our return to Spielberg, I would like to thank everyone involved in this renewal, especially the promoter and Red Bull and I want to pay tribute to Dietrich Mateschitz for the love, passion, and vision he brought to Formula 1 that has ensured the continued success of the event and the huge enthusiasm for our sport in Austria and around the world.”

“We are proud of the special partnership we have with Formula 1,” added Erich Wolf, General Manager of Projekt Spielberg GmbH & Co KG, “and we are absolutely delighted to be welcoming the top class of motorsport to the Red Bull Ring for a further four years.

“In signing this contract extension, Formula 1 has made a strong commitment to Austria, Styria and the Murtal region. As we enter the tenth year of our partnership with Formula 1, we want to celebrate this milestone with all the great fans of the sport and to thank them for their loyalty and the tremendous atmosphere they help to generate. Everyone is invited to experience another great race weekend at Spielberg in 2023.”
