Red Bull Ring Secures F1 Austrian GP Until 2041

Formula 1 has extended its contract with the Red Bull Ring to keep the Austrian Grand Prix on the calendar until 2041, matching the duration of the Miami Grand Prix deal and making it one of the longest-standing agreements in the sport. The Red Bull Ring, owned by the energy drinks company founded by the late Dietrich Mateschitz, was renovated through his investments and rejoined the F1 calendar in 2014 after an 11-year hiatus. F1 CEO Stefano Domenicali praised the extension, highlighting Austria's special place in F1 history and the emotional connection the race has with drivers, teams, and fans. Mark Mateschitz, Dietrich’s son, expressed pride in continuing his father's legacy and maintaining the grand prix's rich heritage in Styria. The circuit, known for its picturesque setting and challenging layout, has seen multiple champions like Max Verstappen, who holds the record for most wins there. This extension secures Austria's role as a key destination in global Formula 1 racing for decades to come.
