For the second year in a row, Austria will hold two Formula 1 races in the same season. The Red Bull Ring is once again the home of Styrian Grand Prix for 2021. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Red Bull Ring opened the delayed 2020 season in July with two rounds: Austria followed by Styria. But with calendar changes aplenty in 2021, the Styrian race will be the first of the two races. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But, the major difference between 2020 and 2021 is that fans will be back in the grandstands in a big way. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fans from across Europe have picked up tickets for the Red Bull Ring’s return across both races – and we couldn’t be happier. After some crazy sessions and producing some of the best racing of the season, it’s only right fans are back to witness the action live. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To make sure you’re on top of all the action, including circuit maps<\/a>, session times<\/a>, support series<\/a>, weather forecast<\/a> and the latest news<\/a> from the weekend, check out this guide with all the information you’ll need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
