About the Driver-Commissioner FIA appointed Derek Warwick a Formula 1 pilot (between 1981 and 1993) as the assistant commissioner for this race, also Silvia Bellot who is member of the general committee of the Automobile Spanish Federation; and Garry Connelly, director of the Motor Sports Security World Institute. Two out of three During stages of Grand Prix marathon it was decided to join present year’s calendar, so the ninth date of the season will be played. It will be official test number 985 in its history and the 31st celebrated in Austria. Red Bull ‘s house The scenario is located within a landscape with a privileged view to the Alpes. Competition will take place on a fast triangle topknot, rectangular-shaped track which looked easy but represented a great challenge for pilots. This will be the fifth time that this completely renewed layout, receive the motor racing supreme category. The innovation is the third zone that has been displayed in order to activate the DRS; this means, that almost during half of the race will be executed at the fullest speed; which is why, several overtakes are expected to happen. The teams During the six latest races, Ferrari won twice and Mercedes four times afterwards. The previous two were won by McLaren. The thing is Red Bull has not won any of them at its general headquarters’ home. It would be nice and it is time for an RB-Aston Martin to win now. Yes, it could happen that those from the red buffalo team hit it next Sunday. Since 2014 they have led Spielberg races (about the Red Bull-Ring): Mercedes in 238 laps; Williams in 17; Ferrari in 13; Force India in 11 (thanks to Sergio Perez) and, Red Bull in only 5 laps (thanks to Max Verstappen). Pilots ROMAIN GROSJEAN (he is in the last positions on the charts, without having scored yet in 2018) and is in the chapel, given, next Sunday he would complete the 13 dates without having scored. SERGIO PEREZ (located in the 12th position with 17 units won) his fans are eagerly waiting for the Mexican recovery, after the podium won in Baku, two months ago. The Asturian FERNANDO ALONSO (who is the eighth position of the championship with 32 points) is now going through bad days in Formula 1. He has not got to pass the entire test since Spanish GP (on May 13th) with three of his recent races, without scoring a single point. One of the most gratifying surprises of the year was brought by KEVIN MAGNUSSEN (who is in the tenth position of the chart, with 27 points in his box) he has finished between the top six of the season (fifth in Bahrain and sixth place in both Spain and France) getting in the 8 recent races, more than what he got during his other sixty previous Grand Prix. It is almost certainly he will score. With two more units he gain, he will become the most fruitful driver for Haas on the present campaign. MAX VERSTAPPEN (sixth place with 68 units) He’s got two podiums consecutively: he finished third in Montreal and second in Le Castellet, would it mean that he is going for the first place in Austria? Let’s keep an eye on him. KIMI RAIKKONEN (in fifth place with 83 digits gathered in 2018) from its 279 GP competed: he will begin its 139th competition with Ferrari, to match Felipe Massa’s working for Maranello. They will be the second most faithful from the team given that Michael Schumacher set a record of 179 races on board Ferrari. With 72 laps: VALTTERI BOTTAS (fourth in 2018, with 92 points) is the one with the biggest number of laps led with Red Bull-Ring. The Finnish is in good shape–and is almost confirmed to continue with Mercedes in 2019– no one should be surprised if next Saturday gets classified to begin from the first row on Sunday; this would mean, to achieve it for the third consecutive time in F1. He’s already done it in Canada and in France. DANIEL RICCIARDO (the third in the standing, with 92 points) has dreamed about being another pilot, winning a F1 Grand Prix on his birthday, since next Sunday he will turn 29. James Hunt (born in August 29th, 1947) celebrated his 29 birthday at 1976 Dutch GP, just like Jean Alesi who did it during Canadian GP in 1995; on June 11^th, when he turned 31 years old. SEBASTIAN VETTEL (second position, thanks to his winning harvest of 131 digits) he is 14 points below the championship leader, his biggest rival, Hamilton. Both are now in the ninth date of the campaign. Last year the British driver was left behind by the German (same situation but the opposite result) after GP in Austria, Vettel was already leading with notes: 127 X 171 and it didn’t work for him. It is now expected that Lewis will get the revenge. Vettel has never won this layout: Lewis has, in 2016. LEWIS HAMILTON (World Championship leader, with 145 points) has won 75 pole positions. And will go for his number 50, but now on board Mercedes. In case of winning, which is very likely, he would be reaching his 65th victory; however, they would be 44 on board his car # 44. [Up to now M. Schumacher is the one with the biggest number of victories, won with the same team Ferrari in 72 times].
