Austrian Grand Prix at the Red Bull Ring: Victory is no guarantee of the World Championship!
A look at the statistics for the Austrian Grand Prix shows that a win at the Red Bull Ring is by no means a guarantee that the driver will go on to win the Formula 1 World Championship.

The 39th Formula 1 Austrian Grand Prix (a World Championship round) takes place at the Red Bull Ring on Sunday. A Styrian Grand Prix was also held on two occasions (in 2020 and 2021 during the Covid-19 pandemic). The first Grand Prix in Zeltweg in 1963 did not count towards the World Championship. It was not often that the winner of this Grand Prix – usually held in midsummer or during the ‘holiday’ season – also went on to become World Champion in the same year.
In total, the winner at Aichfeld went on to become champion in 13 years (including the Styrian Grand Prix). Since racing began at the current Red Bull Ring in 2014, this has happened only five times in 14 races. The most successful driver since 2014 is Max Verstappen, who has secured five home victories for Red Bull Racing.

Topic of the week: MotoGP’s new schedule proved highly controversial
In 2027, MotoGP will also enter the 850cc era with a new schedule. It was not so much the changes themselves as the way the decisions were reached that caused a stir. A prime example of: ‘Talking helps’.
