FIA Insights - Formula 1 Austrian GP Track Limits Updates We have made significant changes at the Red Bull Ring to address track limits at Turns 9 and 10. The installation of a 2.5m gravel strip behind the kerbs at these turns is a key development, acting as a natural deterrent to prevent drivers from gaining an unfair advantage by running wide. To further improve clarity and enforcement, we've introduced a new blue line behind the kerbs. This helps officials to easily identify when a driver exceeds the track limits, ensuring consistent and transparent decision-making during the race. These updates reflect our commitment to maintaining the integrity of the sport and responding to feedback from drivers and teams. We believe these changes will lead to more exciting and fair racing at the Red Bull Ring. Learn more about these changes: https://lnkd.in/ewWa73Jt
