Zeltweg - Austria's Forgotten F1 Track

[@Cpt.Fabi1908]

I am from Austria and nowadays the ZELTWEG Airbase is host to the AIRPOWER 2019 an Airshow where the best of the best show there skills and the newest and most modern planes in Europe can be seen it is extremly cool and the fact that its right next to a Formula 1 circuit (Red Bull ring) means this is probably the cooles most adrenaline paced place in Austria

[@derosiflo6524]

I'm 1.5h away to the south/east from there. I was at turn 1 at the red bull ring while the airpower was held. Made some pics with planes over the circuit. It was a sight to be hold.

Basically, it was a sickly thin Monza with no chicanes.

What could go wrong

[@mrchrisreid]

Agreed

[@jakethreesixty]

The A1 ring and the surrounding countryside is beautiful, one of my favorite tracks.

[@zurafar6954]

Yeah it is beautiful i live only like 20 minutes away from it

[@derosiflo6524]

As an Austrian, I approve. Definitely gonna sub. Excuse me now, I gotta watch more of your videos.

[@leosteiner4040]

In austria we actually still call it Zeltweg

[@BlueSky-ub4fx]

😨AJO! Stimmt! 👍

[@KatschingAUT]

Fun fact and to back up on something another user already commented: many people including most in my area still refer to the Red Bull Ring as "Zeltweg", like in "hey man, you plan on driving to Zeltweg this year to watch the race live?"

[@leonjames1987]

Really enjoying all your vids, funny and great for motor racing fans! 👍

[@thejoshrevell]

Thanks heaps! 😊

[@AlboF1]

Well done mate, grats for new mic!

[@thejoshrevell]

Cheers mate!

[@pencilgamer7772]

3:53 I thought they were pancake racing

[@Klementoso]

As a Dutch bloke who was at the 2019 Grand Prix I think you’re right. I think no person there wearing an orange shirt would mind calling it the Max Verstappen Ring. Keep up the good work. Can’t believe you have only 27k subs.

[@chamalinni]

A week ago he had like 5k subs, this channel is growing fast.

[@Klementoso]

Ah I see, he’s over 30k now. Guess it was the video on Stroll?

[@eamonahern7495]

There were only 4 corners on the flipping thing but it still had more changes in direction than the vast majority of NASCAR circuits. 😂🤣😂🤣

[@johngancarcik5682]

Sadly agreeable Charlotte has an interesting concept with the roval, Sonoma adding the carousel back was smart

[@snappy452]

Americans prefer bumping and banging and ACTUAL PASSING/COMPETITION rather than 3 hours of a high speed parade where the outcome is usually decided on the first lap. Thats why NASCAR is dying; it turned into Formula 1 on ovals. Besides, the differences between the two reflected the realities of each continents pedestrian driving experiences: Eurasian tight corners and narrow roads compared to long, wide and fairly straight American roads.

[@senpaizac4687]

Without Jochen Rindt there would be no Austrian GP, he made F1 popular in Austria. Also I hope they make the Red Bull Ring manly again and bring the long turn back!

[@liamkortekaas6328]

Can confirm, A dutch is watching!

[@thomasschoemaker2020]

Yep more than one is watching

[@thomasvandermeulen1185]

Yep more than two actually

[@logansmith9748]

Thank you for your shuport

[@ieuanhunt552]

Fun fact one of the reasons airfields are built out of concrete slabs is that it is very easy to put landmines underneath it in strategic places so that the military could sabotage it when they retreated. Meaning they didn't leave intact airfields behind them for the enemy to use. That could liven up the next race at Silverstone. I'd they let off a few massive landmines between each lap to vary up the race.

[@michaellawrence8428]

Hey bud subscribed not too long back. I have one suggestion...PLEASE MAKE MORE F1 TRACK HISTORY vids. Please and thank you.

[@anacondastrike128]

1:27 Well back then here in Germany, we only knew one way of designing race-tracks... Fast and f***ing dangerous 😂

[@carlton2443]

The airfield is used a car park during the weekend, it’s also used to sell red bull and tickets outside the track.

[@aslamnurfikri7640]

Just realized the track, the race, and the teams are just a massive Red Bull campaign

[@purwantiallan5089]

Bring back zeltweg please...

[@justinlzy]

Basically this is the Austrian version of the Queensland Raceway

[@joshtiel2980]

Learned a thing! Thanks! 🏁

[@marshallfischer8686]

Cant believe you didnt do the russel Peters joke "somebody gonna getta hurt real bad"

[@Zwidawurzn]

When you're Austrian and watching this to learn about the Zeltweg racing track, lol

[@traincraft]

On a Normal Austrian GP these days the airbase is used for all Teams and drives to land with their planes. (Last year while driving away after the event 8 planes landed there while we were in a traffic jam.

[@Ned-ir5rb]

Great video

[@gordonritchie9341]

Good one keep em comin

[@cat_03tv]

Ah yes, the Zeltweg airspace on the ground at 00:40 just across the lawn to the Red Bull Ring

[@SiVlog1989]

The F1 equivalent of Airbase Speedway

[@ianstrijker9576]

max verstappen brought like 90% of the dutch fans. its insane

[@TuberOnTheLoose]

I'd like to see one of these for Zandvoort and Zolder.

[@ianstrijker9576]

[@aslamnurfikri7640]

NASCAR actually has road course circuits so it's not 100% true

[@mikesuarez9615]

Can u remake this plz

[@toxaq]

I think Hamilton and Vettel should be asked to design future track's

[@GloomGaiGar]

vettel: full of high speed turns and straights hamilton: full of low speed turns and short straights
