The 2025 F1 Season promised to be one of the most exciting in the sport's history! As I planned my travels for the season, I realised that my first race of 2025 would lead me back to my 2nd favourite track on the calendar ( and also the most picturesque ), Red Bull Ring in Spielberg, Austria!

I was truly excited to return to this beautiful track, and as is the custom each year, the Blogs commence with a new post in "A Gallery of Memories" series!

A Selfie with the hosts of the Ferrari F1 Club in Austria!

A big thank you to the hosts of the Scuderia Ferrari F1 Team who helped me experience these amazing moments! The Friday, Saturday and Sunday Experiences from the Austrian GP follow shortly after!

2015 was the first time that I had the privilege of attending the F1 Austrian Grand Prix. Although it was a long trip to the circuit from Graz ( the closest city ), the location of the track in the hills of Styria was so beautiful. The Red Bull Ring as its called, became one of the most picturesque tracks on the calendar for me and I always wanted to re-visit this beautiful venue.

Finally, after a gap of 9 years, the opportunity presented itself and I simply couldn't miss being here at this iconic track. Along with the Austrian GP, I also had the chance of attending the Euros in Germany!

As always, the first post from the race weekend features moments I made with some who are part of the Motorsports Fraternity and some who are famous in their respective walks of life!
