Looking at old footage and photos of the Osterreichring it looks like a wonderful track in a great setting. We always talk of the old Spa and Clermont Ferrand as flowing circuits and it strikes me that the Osterreichring should be up there with them. Do you agree and do you have you any memories of particular races there?
Best regards
