The Austrian Grand prix at Red Bulll Ring at Spielberg , Austria is the eight round on the 2015 Formula One calendar.
The Austria grand prix was held for the first time since 2003 in 2014. Felipe Massa driving for Williams took the first non-Mercedes pole of 2014 here at Austria but Nico Rosberg won the race after he held off his Mercedes teammate Lewis Hamilton in the closing laps.
Its the home race for Red Bull team , but Daniel Ricciardo and Danil Kvyat are probably not going to benefit and look set for a difficult Sunday. It could even be their worst race of he season.
Sebastian Vettel had a miserable time as a Red bull driver here at Austria last year , but he looks set for a stronger showing this time.His Ferrari "Eva's" true was hidden by qualifying issues in Canada . His race pace was much faster than that of both the Mercedes. Expect him to give the Mercedes a harder time in Spielberg. Remember we still haven't seen the full potential of Ferrari's new upgraded engine
Mclaren are bringing a new aerodynamic package to to the Austrian race weekend, centered around a new shorter nose. Like the Renault-powered teams, it won't matter too much what aerodynamic upgrade Mclaren bring they'll be too slow on the straights. Note Fernando Alonso's straight line speed was even slower than those of the Manors.
Enjoy the race :).
