Sebastian Vettel has decided not to use the hotels near the Red Bull Ring. Instead, the German driver has rented a motorhome and is staying on the track itself.

Paddock almost built up

The paddock in Spielberg is getting more and more shape, but it takes some getting used to for everyone who walks around it. It is a lot calmer than normal during an F1-weekend. The assembly work is almost finished.

Motorhomes

Several drivers have chosen to stay on the track. There will be several motorhomes around the circuit where normally there would be an audience. Vettel also uses one of these motorhomes reported by the Italian branch of Motorsport.com.

Strange to see it is not in Formula 1. In the past, this type of motorhome was often used by drivers and teams to avoid the crowds towards the circuits. The big advantage of a motorhome on track during the corona crisis is that contact in hotels is avoided.
