At least 3,000 viewers possible

Due to the withdrawal of strict coronavirus protective measures from mid-May, a certain number of motorsport fans will be allowed into the stand again in the race at Styria. As per the rules currently planned for outdoor events, 3,000 spectators will be allowed, but by the end of June this maximum increase is quite possible.

“It is with great pleasure and respect for Styria that this year our state will have two Formula 1 races as well as MotoGP. With the respective ‘Grand Prix of Styria’ in particular we are once again sensationally international Headlines are coming in, “said Styrian State Sports Council Christopher Drexler (ÖVP). In the summer, Styria will again become” the center of the world of motorsport “, he said and expressly thanked Matschitz.

Replacement for replacement

Technically, Styria’s F1-GP is a replacement for replacement. Because Turkey’s date in Istanbul on 13 June was actually reserved for the Canadian Grand Prix, which was canceled in April due to entry restrictions. Formula 1 announced that Turkey – such as China – would be reserved as a possible replacement race later in the year.

Britain had put Turkey on the red list of countries from which direct entry into the United Kingdom is prohibited. After returning home from these countries, Britons and residents in Great Britain must be in hotel quarantine for ten days at their own expense. Most Formula 1 teams are based in Great Britain, with most of the staff traveling in races related to Great Britain.
