LocationSpielberg, Styria

The Red Bull Ring sits in Styria, folded into the hills near Spielberg. Formula 1 races here and you can tell: wide run-off, perfect asphalt, clear sightlines. It is the circuit where you build confidence fastest.

4.326 kilometres, 10 corners, very flowing. Three long straights with hard braking zones alternate with quick uphill sections. If you want top speed, you will see it here. If you want to work on precision, the corners tell you immediately whether your line was right.

For track day newcomers the Red Bull Ring is one of the friendliest big circuits in Europe: easy to read, plenty of room beside the racing line and corners that forgive. For experienced drivers it stays a challenge, because the elevation shifts the braking points.

Frequently asked questions

Who is a track day at the Red Bull Ring for?
For anyone with a driving licence and a technically sound car. No race prep needed, beginners are explicitly welcome. Instructors are there all day and included in the ticket.
What does open pit mean?
The pit lane is open all day. No groups, no fixed sessions: you go out when you want and stay out as long as you want. The difference shows over the day: with fixed 20 minute windows it usually ends right when tyres and brakes are up to temperature and you are in a rhythm. Here you simply stay out and can work on one corner until it clicks. The only limit is the traffic light when too many cars are on track at once.
How many cars are on track at once?
We sell 50 starting places, a maximum of 30 cars may be on track at the same time. In practice the light is almost always green, because never everyone is out at once.
Do I need a helmet?
Yes, for everyone in the car. If you do not have one, tell us in advance and we will sort it out.
Is my car insured on track?
Usually not under a normal motor policy, check before booking. Dedicated track day insurance exists. Damage to circuit installations is paid for by whoever caused it.
Can I run an unregistered car?
In principle yes. On track, participants are liable to each other. If your car has no valid third-party motor insurance, you need your own participant liability cover and show us the policy once.
What happens if it rains?
We run in any weather. Before the event you get access to our weather briefing with rain probability, track temperature and a tyre recommendation, updated hourly.
Can I cancel?
Date-bound events are excluded from the right of withdrawal, but we are flexible: up to 8 weeks before 75 percent as a voucher, up to 4 weeks 50 percent. Vouchers are valid 12 months and transferable.
Can two of us share one car?
Yes. An additional driver costs 99 €, you share the car, the day and the cost. One passenger is already included in the driver ticket.
