Each Formula 1 Grand Prix is contested by 20 cars, with each of the 10 teams in the championship represented by 2 separate drivers. The events begin with qualifying races, which determine the starting order for the competitive race. The driver who performs best in qualifying starts in pole position, while the driver who performs worst must start furthest from the line.
The winner of the Grand Prix race receives a trophy and 25 championship points, while those who finish second and third receive 18 and 15 points respectively. This continues down to the driver who finishes in 10th position, who receives 1 point. The polesitter and the driver who records the fastest single lap also receive points. At the end of the season, the driver with the most points wins the World Drivers' Championship, while the team with the most points between its 2 drivers wins the World Constructors' Championship.
Ring Radio is broadcast at the frequency 92.3 MHzs throughout the venue. This service provides coverage of all training sessions, qualifying sessions, and racing decisions, as well as the other racing series.

Some of the best food is typically found in the Fan Zone area, and you can expect tasty versions of classic Austrian fare like schnitzel burgers and bratwurst.

Fans are welcome to bring their own cold food into the circuit, and drinks are also permitted as long as they are not held in glass containers.
