What is Red Bull’s new F1 Energy Station called?
Simply put – it’s called ‘the Red Bull F1 Energy Station’.
However, we’re nicknaming it ‘the F1 Holzhaus’ (translation:
Wood House) due to its construction of sustainably sourced
Austrian wood!
When did the idea to build a new home come around?
The building was commissioned by Red Bull in July 2018
(shortly after the MotoGP Holzhaus made a guest appearance at
the Austrian Grand Prix). It’s first build was at the Salzburgring
on 2 April 2019.

down even more quickly.

When do we get to see it?
The new F1 Energy Station will debut at this week’s Spanish
Grand Prix, and will appear at nine European races in 2019.
