Styrian Grand Prix- Winners, Qualifying, Circuits, Track

The Styrian Grand Prix is a Formula One race held at the Red Bull Ring. It is named after Styria, the area which the circuit is situated in. The first Styrian GP was held in 2020, as the second race of the COVID-hit Formula One World Championship.

The COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 prompted disturbance to the race schedule, with various occasions dropped. The Styrian Grand Prix was added to the reconsidered schedule. It was held as a "one-off" race, similar to a few other new or returning Grand Prix weekends. This was done in order to compensate for races that had to be dropped. It was the second c race at consecutive race the Red Bull Ring after the 2020 Austrian Grand Prix.

Even though it was introduced as a one-off event, COVID restrictions forced the FIA to carry the Styrian GP into 2021 as well.

The 2020 Styrian GP was held from 25 to 27 July, just one week before the Austrian GP.

Red Bull's Max Verstappen emerged as the victor of what turned out to be quite an uneventful and straightforward race weekend. He took pole position and held on to the lead throughout the race, beating second-placed Lewis Hamilton with a gap of nearly 35 seconds.

Circuit Details

The race circuit was established as Österreichring. It facilitated the Austrian Grand Prix for 18 continuous years, from 1970 to 1987. It was subsequently abbreviated, revamped, and renamed as the A1-Ring. The Austrian Grand Prix was again held from 1997 to 2003 on the revamped track. When Formula One grew out of the circuit, an arrangement was attracted up to expand the format.

Portions of the circuit, including the pits and grandstand, were removed; however, development work was halted and the circuit stayed unusable for quite a long while. It was then bought by Red Bull's Dietrich Mateschitz and revamped. It was renamed as Red Bull Ring. The track returned on 15 May 2011.
