Motorcycle Grand Prix racing returned to Austria in 2016 after a break of 18 years.

Three years ago, Austria hosted a motorcycle Grand Prix event for the first time since 1997.

The first Austrian GP took place in 1971 at the Salzburgring cir-cuit, which hosted Grand Prix racing on 22 occasions.

At that first Austrian GP in 1971, Giacomo Agostini (MV Agusta) won the 500cc race, finishing more than a lap ahead of second-place finisher Keith Turner. Agostini also won the 350cc race, with the other classes being won by the following riders: 250cc – Silvio Grassetti (MZ), 125cc – Angel Nieto (Derbi), 50cc – Jan de Vries (Kreidler).

The last occasion that a Grand Prix event took place at the Salz-burgring circuit was in 1994, when Mick Doohan won the 500cc race with a race average speed in excess of 194 km/h.

Due to the high-speed nature of the Salzburgring circuit, and the limited amount of run-off provided, it was considered too dangerous for continued use in Grand Prix racing.

A total of 86 Grand Prix races for solo motorcycles have been held in Austria since 1971 as follows: MotoGP™ – 3, 500cc – 24, 350cc – 10, Moto2™ – 3, 250cc – 16, Moto3™ – 3, 125cc – 23, 80cc – 3, 50cc – 1.

The current Red Bull Ring has hosted two previous Grand Prix events prior to 2016 – in 1996 and 1997, when named the A1-Ring.

Honda won the 500cc races held at the A1-Ring in both 1996 and 1997, with Alex Criville and Mick Doohan. Before 2016, Valentino Rossi was the only current rider to have previously raced at this circuit in a Grand Prix event.

Rossi’s third-place finish in the 125cc race in Austria in 1996 was his first Grand Prix podium finish. He again finished on the podium in the 125cc race in Austria in 1997, this time in second place just 0.004 seconds behind Noboru Ueda.

Ducati have taken the three MotoGP™ wins at the Red Bull Ring since 2016, the first of them came from pole position with An-drea Iannone, the second with Andrea Dovizioso in 2017 and the

third with Jorge Lorenzo last year.In 2016 in Austria, Andrea Iannone won for the first time since he moved up to the MotoGP™ class and gave Ducati their first win since Casey Stoner won the Australian GP in 2010. With Andrea Dovizioso crossing the line in second, this was the first one-two finish in a MotoGP™ race for Ducati since the Australian GP in 2007, won by Casey Stoner from Loris Capirossi.

Honda have qualified on pole position over the last two year at the Red Bull Ring, both times with Marc Marquez.

The Red Bull Ring is the only track on the current calendar where Marc Marquez has never won in the premier class.

With Jorge Lorenzo’s third place in 2016 is Yamaha’s best result at the track. Norick Abe and Luca Cadalora also finished third in 1996 and 1997, respectively in the 500cc races held at the A1-Ring.

The Austrian race in 2016 was the first time that Italian riders riding Italian bikes took 1-2 in the premier class since the Finn-ish 500cc GP at Imatra in 1972 won by Giacomo Agostini from teammate Alberto Pagani, both riding MV Agustas.

The average speed of the MotoGP™ race in Austria in 2016 was 182.401 km/h. This was the highest average speed for a GP race since Mick Doohan won the 500cc German Grand Prix in 1994 at the Hockenheim circuit at an average speed of 203.8 km/h. Last year in Austria, the average speed was 182.827 km/h.

In 2017, Cal Crutchlow finished the Austrian Grand Prix in 15th place and crossed the line just 28.096 seconds behind race win-ner Andrea Dovizioso, which was the closest top 15 of all-time in a full-length premier class Grand Prix at the time. Incredibly, this record is now in tenth place on the list of the closest top 15s in the class, behind Mugello earlier this year.

The three Moto2™ races that have taken place at the Red Bull Ring have been won by three different riders: Johann Zarco (2016), Franco Morbidelli (2017) and Francesco Bagnaia (2018). Zarco and Bagnaia won after qualifying one pole position.

The three Moto3™ races that have taken place in Austria have been won by two different riders: Joan Mir on bikes from two dif-ferent manufacturers: KTM (2016), his first Grand Prix win from pole position, and Honda (2017), and Marco Bezzecchi (2018), from pole position.

Grand Prix racing in Austria

300 –In Brno, Valentino Rossi finished in sixth place, scoring points for the 300th time since he stepped up to the premier class of Grand Prix racing in 2000.

125 –The win for Marc Marquez at the Czech GP was the 125th time he has been on the podium in his Grand Prix career. Only five riders have been on the podium on more occasions in Grand Prix racing.

97 – At the Czech GP, Andrea Dovizioso stood on the podium for the 97th in his Grand Prix career, one less than Jim Redman and two less than Loris Capirossi.

35 – Marc Marquez’ win at the Czech GP is his 35th after qualifying on pole position.

34 – With Aron Canet, Alex Marquez and Marc Marquez, this is the second hat-track win for Spain this season (along with Barcelona) and the 34th overall in 125cc/Moto3™, 250cc/Moto2™ and 500cc/MotoGP™.

33 – Since the opening Grand Prix in Qatar, 33 different riders have stood on the podium across all GP classes for the second successive year. Only Marc Marquez, with nine podium finishes, has finished on the podium more than six times in the opening ten Grands Prix of the season.
