Franz Tost is delighted now that it appears we will be racing again in over a month. The team boss of Scuderia AlphaTauri is happy that the wait is over and his gratitude is mainly focused on Dietrich Mateschitz and Helmut Marko.
Through the official channels of his team he shows his appreciation to the big boss of Red Bull: "I want to thank Dietrich Mateschitz and Red Bull very much for making the Grand Prix at the Red Bull ring possible. It's fantastic that we can race again, it will be the first race in which we can show our new car with the AlphaTauri livery".
Helmut Marko
The Austrian shows once again what the influence of Helmut Marko has been on the upcoming start of the season. Red Bull's advisor has had a lot of contact with the authorities in Austria. "It took a lot of time and effort to get the approval of the government in Austria. This is also the result of the negotiations that Dr. Marko started with the authorities a few weeks ago".
Finally, the team boss elaborates on the fact that there will be no audience. "It will feel crazy for the atmosphere of course and it's a shame there won't be any spectators, but it's an important step for Formula 1. Hopefully it will be back to the way it was as soon as possible".
