Tulln-Langenlebarn

Tulln is an operational airfield that is situated a mile from the banks of the Danube River. A meeting for sports and GT cars was staged on 2 October 1966 and it held a European Formula 2 race for the first five years of the championship. Facilities were rudimentary, with straw bales marking the course on the concrete runway. Local hero Jochen Rindt obliged the crowds by winning the first three F2 events, and Ronnie Peterson’s victory in the circuit’s final race came as many others spun out in the heavy rain.
