In the summer of 1964, the first Formula 1 World Championship round took place on Austrian soil. To commemorate the anniversary in 2014, Formula 1 will return to the country and will be held at the redesigned Red Bull Ring. Everything started in the 1950s with the airfield races in Aspern and Zeltweg: the organization was in the hands of small motorsport clubs and was driven by the members' passion for motorsport. Future world champions Jochen Rindt and Niki Lauda gathered their first experiences there. Martin Pfundner, as the initiator of the airfield races a connoisseur from the very beginning, puts these races in the spotlight and continues to write the history of Formula 1 up to the most recent developments.
