The old Österreichring :

The track was known for having many fast corners, as well as noticeable changes in elevation during the course of a lap.

Many considered the Österreichring to be dangerous, especially the "Boschkurve", a 180-degree right-hand corner with almost no run-off area.

Tragically, American Mark Donohue died after crashing at the "Hella-Licht" corner in 1975. It is also known that four-times World Champion Alain Prost often said that all tracks can be changed but that the Österreichring should remain unchanged, just adding run-off areas would be fine.

The new A1-Ring :

Mainly due to safety concerns, the track was abandoned by Formula One for nearly a decade.

The circuit was totally rebuilt, at the same site, by Hermann Tilke in 1995 and 1996. The circuit was shortened from 5.942 km to 4.326 km (2.684 mi), the fast sweeping corners replaced by three tight righthanders, in order to create overtaking opportunities for F1.

Its three long straights, as well as a twisty infield section, asked for a setup compromise.

Renamed A1-Ring (after a sponsor, the cellphone provider A1), the Formula One Austrian Grand Prix was held on it from 1997 to 2003.
