At the Red Bull Ring Classics, the final weekend of August 2026 brought glorious late-summer weather and created a picture-perfect event. The fourth edition of the event celebrated a new attendance record, with a total of 20,500 historic motorsport fans enjoying eight racing series, legendary dream cars from Hollywood, automotive masterpieces from around the world, show runs, a vehicle exhibition, and a host of side events featuring the “Crazy Marshals” and the Red Bull Rotorwings.
The fully restored AVIS Type 3 also attracted plenty of attention from spectators. Driver Robert Krickl made a stop at Spielberg before continuing his journey towards Monaco on Sunday. The original of this remarkable “made in Austria” car was scheduled to compete in the 1926 Monte-Carlo Rally – and exactly 100 years later, it is getting a second chance to make the journey.
The Legends Talks and autograph sessions with Dr. Helmut Marko, Karl Wendlinger, Christian Klien, Mathias Lauda, Bernd Schneider, Dirk Adorf and Arturo Merzario were among the weekend’s highlights, attracting enthusiastic audiences throughout the weekend.
