Legend Salzburgring: Tradition Meets Innovation

Built in 1969 at the same time as the old sterreichring, the high-speed circuit at Salzburg's gates was often the scene of legendary slipstream duels and highly dramatic battles in the rain. 50 years of Salzburgring also means victories and defeats, triumphs and tragedies, along with plenty of racing passion. But above all else: motor sports at the highest level. The re-issued and revised anniversary edition of Legend of Salzburgring has been supplemented with not just the events of the past five years since the publication of the first book, but also the astonishingly diverse present-day race circuit and its future in the fast-moving and extremely challenging 21st century. Following its rich history of ups and downs, Salzburgring is once again facing some important strategic decisions on its 50th birthday. Accordingly, Legend of Salzburgring-Tradition meets Innovation is not just a fascinating look back at the past, but also a glimpse ahead of the next 50 years of this race circuit.
