Historic motorsport will be brought to life at the Red Bull Ring Classics – and you can be there to see it live! A packed programme awaits you both on and off the race track.
Your event ticket gives you free access to the paddock, the fan zone and all open grandstands, from where you have a perfect view of the various racing series.
The Red Bull Ring Classics is where you get closer to the drivers and cars than at almost any other event. On the Pit Lane Walk, you stroll along the row of team garages and get a close look at the historic cars ready to compete in the different series.

Vehicle exhibition, lego cars, legends talk
A collection of single-seater formula cars (lego) awaits you in the paddock, as well as a vehicle exhibition featuring automotive gems that will take you on a journey back through time. To name just a few: a BMW 635 CSi Gr.2 Wide Body, a Vixen GT and several F1 Lotus cars.
As the motorised icing on the cake, you will find another vehicle exhibition in the Fan Zone with a line-up of famous originals from the Hollywood dream factory such as Eleanor and General Lee as well as a replica of the quirky Mini from Mr Bean.
A DJ will provide the musical backdrop to the event on the event stage in the Fan Zone. Austrian motorsport legend Dieter Quester and his ‘best mate’ Prince Leopold of Bavaria will talk about their past exploits. Together with Hans-Joachim Stuck, they were known for playing pranks off the race track.
“I used to drink Willi Dungl herbal tea, and Stuck couldn’t think of anything better than pouring a rust solvent into my mug,” reveals Quester.
Naturally, he returned the favour. “At the 12 Hours of Sebring, I waited until he went into one of the mobile toilets. I then stood in front of the door with a golf cart and pushed the cubicle (with him in it) through the paddock. That was the only time in our friendship that he didn’t talk to me for almost three months.”
Legends Talk* times:
Sunday: 12:25 – 12:40
Afterwards, the stars of yesteryear will be available for autographs and selfies.
