Tragically however, Rindt was killed just days later at that year’s Italian Grand Prix at Monza, becoming the sport's first, and to date thankfully its last, posthumous world champion. But to the disappointment of the home fans it was not to be, with Jacky Ickx taking the chequered flag for Ferrari. Rindt was dominating the season for Lotus and a win looked on the cards for the Austrian. The first Formula One race was held there in 1970.

Its impressive corners, wonderful aesthetics and demand on driver skill would pass into Formula One legend. The Osterreichring was located in a natural basin and proved to be one of the fastest tracks in the world. Rindt's success, coupled with a growing interest in F1 racing, led to enough funding being found for a purpose-built circuit to be created. In 1965 Formula One racing decided not to return, but the sportscar event was still run and won by local hero Rindt in a Ferrari. With Rindt ascending through the F1 ranks, Zeltweg pushed for a championship race, and in 1964 the dream was realised, with Lorenzo Bandini going on to claim his one and only victory in the sport. The interest these events had stirred in Austria led to the rise of an Austrian superstar in Jochen Rindt. The organisers, however, dreamed of hosting a Formula One race, and in 19, Zeltweg staged non-championship events, won by Innes Ireland and Jack Brabham respectively. The first race held there in 1958, for international sportscars, was won by Wolfgang von Trips in a Porsche, but though the remarkably bumpy track drew criticism from some, the circuit went on to hold two rounds of the Formula Two Championship in 19. They created a simple L-shaped circuit with cones and hay bales in the town of Zeltweg.
