Austrian Grand Prix - Winners, Qualifying, Circuits, Track

The Austrian Grand Prix is a yearly Formula One race. An FIA authorized racing event, the first F1 race in Austria was held in 1964. Formula One got back to Austria in 1970–1987 and 1997–2003. Austria once again started hosting the races in 2014.

2020 F1 season was hit by the COVID-19 pandemic. There were numerous changes in the 2020 schedule, with multiple Grand Prix weekends being cancelled. As a result, Austria facilitated two consecutive Formula One races at the Red Bull Ring in 2021 - the Styrian Grand Prix and Austrian Grand Prix. Despite the fact that the Styrian GP was a one-off race, F1 saved it for the 2021 schedule too.
