Formula 1’s Austrian Grand Prix will stay on the calendar through at least 2030 after a fresh agreement was reached.
The amended deal was announced during the build-up to Sunday’s race at the Red Bull Ring.
Austria returned to Formula 1 in 2014 at a renovated Red Bull Ring, over a decade after it had a seven-year stint as the A1-Ring.
The grand prix was also held from 1970 through 1987 on the longer Osterreichring.
Earlier this year Austria signed a new four-year deal with Formula 1 to keep the event from 2024 through 2027.
On Sunday a further three years was added that duration, meaning Austria will remain on the schedule through 2030.
“I am delighted to announce this news with our exceptional partners in Austria,” said Formula 1 CEO Stefano Domenicali.
“The vision and passion of Dietrich Mateschitz, a man who loved this sport, made this all possible and it is a very special moment and a tribute to him that we can confirm we will be racing at this incredible venue until 2030.
“The race in Austria is a big favourite for the drivers and all our fans and we are looking forward to many years of excitement and action that are ahead of us.”
