These events are also expected to draw large audiences both at the track and on television.
The entire weekend will be broadcast live for UK viewers on Sky Sports F1 and the Sky Sports Main Event channel. This ensures that fans do not miss any part of the weekend, from the first practice sessions to the final podium celebration.
The Austrian Grand Prix is held at the Red Bull Ring, a circuit known for its beautiful mountain scenery and fast, challenging corners. It has become a favourite for many British fans who travel to Central Europe to watch the race in person or follow it closely from home.
As the 2026 season approaches, more details about the full race calendar are expected to be released. For now, Formula 1 enthusiasts can mark June 2026 in their diaries as a key month for high-speed racing action.
