Track of The Month – December 2018
Red Bull Ring, Austria
Our Track of the Month for December is the Red Bull Ring circuit in Spielberg, Austria.
Formerly known as the Osterreichring as well as the A1-Ring, The Red Bull Ring is a 2.7 mile circuit situated in the Styrian Mountains, making it one the most picturesque circuits on the current Formula 1 calendar.
The circuit consists of just 9 corners, the fewest on this years calendar, and the is the shortest of the season based on lap time. The long straights around the Red Bull Ring provide plenty of overtaking opportunities for anyone daring enough in the braking zones and the undulations and elevation changes make every corner a challenge.
Have a look below for an on-board lap of the Red Bull Ring in a Porsche 991 Cup.
We hope you enjoy this fantastic circuit and the cars we have chosen!
