RUSSELL WINS IN FRONT OF A RECORD CROWD AT THE RED BULL RING

This number will go down in history. Austria’s biggest sporting event set a new attendance record at the Red Bull Ring with sold-out stands. Never before have so many fans attended in a single weekend. The record-breaking winner at Spielberg, Max Verstappen of Oracle Red Bull Racing, was only beaten by George Russell (Mercedes). Teammate Kimi Antonelli rounded out the podium. After four days of the Formula 1 festival in the Murtal Valley, Styria and the entire country are looking forward to the next visit of the premier class to Spielberg. Ticket sales for the “2027 Formula 1 Austrian Grand Prix” begin on Monday, June 29, at www.redbullring.com. 

Opera flair on the starting grid. Two helicopters flying the Austrian and Styrian flags soared over the Grand Prix grounds while opera star Jonas Kaufmann sang the national anthem, accompanied by the Musicbanda Franui. Seeing Formula 1 stars up close, the red-white-red grandstands at a sold-out Grand Prix guaranteed pure goosebumps. The Flying Bulls’ air show, side-event highlights from Thursday through Sunday, a festival atmosphere in the F1 Fan Zone, and hundreds of thousands of fans at Spielberg created a spectacular atmosphere. THANK YOU to 320,000 visitors!

Red Bull Legends Parade featuring engine sounds from 1975 to 2010. The “GP ICONS” event delivered exactly what it promised. Ten motorsport legends drove breathtaking race cars from Formula 1 history spanning 1975 to 2010, including Rubens Barrichello, Jean Alesi, David Coulthard, Mark Webber, and Karl Wendlinger. They thrilled fans with cars like the Ferrari F2002, the Red Bull Racing RB6, the Brabham BT46B, the Tyrrell P34, and Niki Lauda’s world championship-winning Ferrari, the 312T.
