How to watch the 2021 Styrian Grand Prix online from anywhere
The 2021 Formula 1 season continues and for the next two weeks teams and drivers will be in Austria for the Styrian Grand Prix and then the Austrian Grand Prix and we have all the details on how you can watch this weekend's race online.
Last year for the first time ever, two grand prix events were held at the same track as Formula 1 had to change its schedule due to the pandemic. However, since every grand prix must have its own name, it was decided that one of the two races would be called the Styrian Grand Prix and the name comes from the region in Austria where the event is held. Since holding two races in Austria worked out last year, Formula 1 has decided to keep both events in its 2021 schedule.
This weekend's Styrian Grand Prix will be held at the Red Bull Ring in Spielberg, Austria which originally went by the name Osterreichring when the track was built in 1969 as a replacement for the Zeltweg airfield circuit. The track itself has a total of ten turns, a circuit length of 2.68 miles (4.318km) and drivers will complete 71 laps before finishing the 190 mile (306km) race. Former McLaren and now Ferrari driver Carlos Sainz Jr. set a lap record of just over one minute and five seconds at last year's Styrian Grand Prix.
At last weekend's French Grand Prix, Red Bull's Max Verstappen came in first followed by Mercedes' Lewis Hamilton in second and Red Bull's Sergio Perez in third. Verstappen's recent wins have put him at the top of the F1's 2021 standings with 131 points though Hamilton isn't far behind with 119 points. Meanwhile, Perez has been climbing up the rankings and now holds the third spot after taking the podium in first place at the Azerbaijan Grand Prix at the beginning of June.
Whether you're rooting for Verstappen, Hamilton, Perez, or just want to see the first of two Formula 1 races in Austria this year, we'll show you how to watch the Styrian Grand Prix from anywhere in the world.
