After the trip to Canada, Formula One racing returns to Europe for the next 6 GPs. According to Brembo technicians, the Austrian circuit falls into the category of tracks with a medium level of difficulty for the brakes. On a scale of 1 to 5, it is rated 3 on the difficulty index, the same as the track in neighboring Budapest.
The Red Bull Ring also hosts the MotoGP, although the track is slightly different since the bikes have to tackle a chicane at Corner 2. This variation reduced speed at Corner 3 where an accident occurred in 2020 involving an out-of-control bike that crossed the track, fortunately without hitting any other riders.
