With the coronary pandemic, many public places have already had to close their doors in several European countries, including circuits. Several races have been cancelled or postponed and the next step is to close more and more circuits, including the Red Bull Ring in Austria.

Protect

In order to protect visitors and employees, the Red Bull Ring has decided to close its doors. This means that it is no longer allowed to drive on the track as an 'experience', the fan shop will be closed and tours will be suspended. The result is no more visitors and so the hotel and restaurant also close their doors for some time.

The driving experience can't take place by order of the government, so the circuit states. So it makes little sense to keep the doors open. The same goes for all other things and activities that apply around the circuit, however, the managements work will continue. They are currently looking at a new planning for the circuit.

They are keeping a close eye on the current situation and are in contact with the government to implement all necessary measures, as the circuit announces in a press release. All events that will take place later in the year are not under pressure for the time being. The government regulations concerning the limited implementation of activities in Austria are in force until 13 April.
