POETRY IN MOTION: MICHAEL KÖHLMEIER

On the 10th anniversary of his death, we remember the Red Bull Ring architect GÜNTHER DOMENIG, who didn’t simply build houses, he made life-sized poetry...

W

henever an airplane took off in old Hollywood films, it had to go from the bottom left to the top right of the screen. People needed joy. They needed hope. But joy and hope meant the future, and the future began at the bottom left and went to the top right. Clockwise.

Günther Domenig often spoke of the correlation between literature and architecture. He compared his buildings to a novel. By contrast, Marcel Proust described his 3000-page, once-in-a-century work, À la Recherche du Temps Perdu [In Search of Lost Time] as a cathedral.

If Domenig was interested in the narrative in literature and wanted to introduce it into architecture, then we can safely say that in both the old epic and the modern novel, and everyday oral storytelling, the script always decides whether a story will arouse interest or simply bore us. In this case, storytelling and architecture are the same thing.

Today, In Search of Lost Time is considered one of the seminal works of the 20th century, and the buildings of Günther Domenig are listed. Ten years after his death, the architect is heralded as a Modernism classicist, his name uttered in the same hushed tones as those of Antoni Gaudí, Oscar Niemeyer, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe and Le Corbusier.

I’ve always thought that the sublime thing in art was that one art movement carries all the others within it – music comes together with painting, painting with literature, and they all meet in

MICHAEL KÖHLMEIER

Celebrated architect Günther Domenig and the Red Bull Ring straight and iconic grandstands, which are inspired by the rear wing of a car.

architecture. It encompasses all the other arts. It’s visible, audible, tangible. It is the gesamtkunstwerk (the complete art).

There’s a preconception that beauty and function are mutually exclusive, and function must take precedence. That is patent nonsense and leads to people having to live in a sad environment. Poetry indulges people.

It makes it easier for them to love.

Throughout his life, Günther Domenig was against the ‘depoeticisation’ of architecture. No, that term isn’t strong enough: He fought against it. It was a lonely fight. “What I build,” he said, “is my language.” All his buildings, he said, “are the essence of who I am”. Günther Domenig is the complete artist.

The man’s art is born of confidence and enthusiastic optimism, his gaze going from bottom left to top right. The pit lane and grandstands at the Red Bull Ring are inspired by the rear wing of a racing car.

For all our harping on about political and ecological principles, we are touched by our pure, child-like enthusiasm for speed, which is one of the allegorical handmaidens of modernism. It means we are going places! Things may be dark behind us, but ahead of us things are bright! And here at the Red Bull Ring, you drive clockwise – of course.

F1 Red Bull Ring Hysteria 07

We’re nearly halfway through the joint longest season in F1 history.

So, as teams fuel up for the long run towards the flag, here are 15 key signs that you might be suffering from…

MID-SEASON MADNESS 1.

7.

10.

You’re constantly surprised that when you get home and wave your paddock pass at the front door, it doesn’t automatically open.

You’ve now spent more nights sharing a hotel with your roommate than with your husband/ wife/partner and when you get home you find yourself angrily thinking: “Well, roommate X never leaves the toilet seat up.”

The season has been on so long that your reserve driver is now too old for F2 and is eyeing a career in historic racing.

2.

11.

It’s also confusing that when you pick up the phone at 1am, call your partner and ask for a club sandwich and a beer, all you get is a punch in the head.

The final revolutionary schedule change designed to reduce the load on overburdened team personnel has just been repealed and your schedule is back to something resembling that of a Victorian workhouse.

Pass the gruel.

3.

12.

People have given up asking when you’re going to get on top of current issues and want to know how far you’re into the development of the next car.

4.

A porpoise is no longer an aquatic mammal, except in your feverish mid-season dreams when it looks oddly like George Russell in a grey suit.

GETTY IMAGES

JUSTIN HYNES

5.

And speaking of which, your mid-season update has reduced porpoising but your car now looks like a narwhal.

6.

And speaking of which Pt 2… the porpoising has got so bad that your lead driver is four inches shorter than he was at the start of the year and you’re moving the pedal box back every other week.

You realise you’ve developed a taste for gruel.

13.

Laughing through the tear strips: Max and F1 seem to have been racing non-stop for two years.

8.

You’ve stopped hating the F1 theme music and, to your horror, the entire bus is quietly humming it on the way to work – again.

9.

Your kids are upset that you have radically lowered the ride height on their bikes and you’ve fitted a series of stays to the lawnmower.

The season is so long that the team is having to rotate in some of the, shall we say, more senior members of the mechanical fraternity from the factory. Their insistence on the need to grease the nipples is worrying as that’s what got them sent back to the factory in the first place.

14.

It goes from bad to worse when he slaps the chief strategist on the backside and tells her “four sugars, love, there’s a good girl”.

15.

At this point, everyone knows exactly where their team will finish in the Constructors’ Championship and the unspoken truth is that, like Indiana Jones in Raiders of the Lost Ark, nothing he does changes the outcome. The Ark still gets opened, that guy’s face still melts and you’re going to finish sixth – again.

10 Superfans F1 Red Bull Ring

COR WARINK Loppersum, Netherlands

I’ve been a fan of the Verstappens for almost three decades – I started following F1 when Jos drove for Benetton, I was a member of the Verstappen fan page and received a newsletter every time after a race. At some point, we received the newsletter announcing that Max was born! I started following him when he got into F3. What Max means to me and many F1 enthusiasts is he’s the best that motorsport in the Netherlands

‘MAX REFUSES TO GIVE UP AND HE GOES FOR SPACES OTHERS MIGHT NOT. HIGH RISK, HIGH REWARD, AND THAT’S WHAT I LOVE ABOUT HIM’ JONO MARSTON and Belgium has produced. I like his honest, straightforward opinions. Max is a driver who really dares to race hard. I’ve been to eight races, across Germany, Spain and Belgium, but the best was Austria and my best GP weekend was when Max won!

These Max Verstappen fans went the extra mile for the 2016 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.

JONO MARSTON Northampton, England

They call him Super Max for a reason.

From his very early days in F3, people knew there was something special about him. Then he came to F1 and became a legend. Max is a risk taker: he refuses to give up and he goes for spaces others might not. High risk, high reward, and that’s what I love about him. What he’s achieved for someone so young is phenomenal!

Last year’s world title win was only the beginning and he could go on to dominate the sport for years to come.

LEE SPILLING Albury (NSW), Australia

When Max Verstappen first entered F1, the attention was on him because of his age, but what grabbed me was his driving style. He reminded me of a young Michael Schumacher, and I’ve just loved him ever since. Last season was phenomenal and, while some of his driving was erratic, some of it was just unbelievable. He was amazing.

Now he has a World Championship to his name, it’s only the beginning.

JACOBINE VAN DEN BERG IJsselstein, Netherlands

I’m 27 and I’ve been a fan of Max Verstappen since the final stages of the Spanish Grand Prix in 2016, when I accidentally fell into the sport.

I haven’t missed a single race since.

Max is an exceptional talent: down to earth and funny. He makes every race exciting to watch. Max is driving like a World Champion this year. My first race weekend was the Austrian Grand Prix in 2017, and this photo of me is my reaction to him taking pole for the home race at Zandvoort last year!

Hail to the chief: Max fans stand out from the crowd.

JOHN BARROWMAN Dunblane, Scotland

I’ve been a fan of Max since he joined F1. As a Scot, I have a natural affinity for the Brits on the grid, but Max just stands out due to his attacking driving style. The fact that his fans bring a party atmosphere and that orange is my favourite colour are bonuses. I’m looking forward to this Grand Prix and to Zandvoort, to experience Red Bull and Max’s home races. Silverstone 2022 was the 25th race I’ve attended.

‘MAX IS AN EXCEPTIONAL TALENT: DOWN TO EARTH AND FUNNY. HE MAKES EVERY RACE EXCITING’ JACOBINE VAN DEN BERG

JEROEN SCHOLTE Koog aan de Zaan, Netherlands

In a time when everyone in my country was watching football and speedskating, I watched Niki Lauda, Ayrton Senna and all those other legends race at Monaco. My friends didn’t understand my fascination for it.

They thought I was crazy, weird. ‘Why

are you watching that? It’s hardly ever on TV. We never win!’ Enter Max Verstappen. His fearless character and incredible skills have turned everything around. Dutch people have started watching. I have two teenage sons now and they are huge Max fans.

Every year, we visit a Grand Prix and, for us, it is the best weekend of the year. And their friends? They don’t think they’re crazy or weird at all!

NIALL RICHARDSON Lincoln, England

I can’t exactly explain why I began supporting Max, I just liked him.

I started watching Formula 1 in 2015 and, as that was his first season, I think it was partly because we were both ‘newbies’. And then I started to love watching him race. He’s the epitome of a real racer: quick, efficient, aggressive when he needs to be, and genuinely a good person. I remember watching him win the championship last season and I’ve never felt a feeling similar to that one. He’s a fantastic driver and I hope to meet him one day!

LAPTIME INTERVIEW

WITH A LITTLE HELP FROM MY FRIENDS Last season, LIAM LAWSON claimed back-to-back victories in DTM at the Red Bull Ring, but how many questions can the Kiwi star answer in the time it took him to claim pole position?

We put him (and the Carlin F2 team) on the spot...

LIAM LAWSON

0:30.830

0:42.673

How are you enjoying being with AlphaTauri?

It’s exciting to start to be introduced to the F1 world.

Being a reserve is a big opportunity for me and it was great to be out in Australia learning all about how things work.

What’s your greatest strength as a driver?

It’s hard to say! [Liam turns to his race engineer: “What would you say my greatest strength is?” Race Engineer: “You’re a naturally quick driver and your first laps are always really strong.”]

I’ll take that!

Who are the first three people on your dream dinner party guest list?

Margot Robbie, Bruce McLaren, Emily Ratajkowski.

1:00.412 What three things could you not do without on a race weekend?

The team, a fast car, headphones.

1:05.216

0:25.096 What’s the craziest thing you’ve done away from the track?

Flying in a plane above Red Bull Ring. We got to do some cool stunts like flips and rolls, and they even let me fly a little bit. So that was pretty crazy!

9 3 8 10 GO!

START 0:00.000

0:18.302 Off track, what’s the best thing to do at the Red Bull Ring?

There’s a circuit inside where you can drive KTM X-Bows and that looks really awesome. I’d love to do that.

There’s also a really cool terrace at the top where you can hang out and see the track.

0:10.611 You’ve raced in many different series. Is versatility one of your strengths?

I think it always helps to be versatile as a driver. From a young age I’ve been lucky to have the opportunity to drive in a lot of categories and drive a lot of different cars.

the red bulletin: You’re a repeat winner at the Red Bull Ring. What was your best race here? liam lawson: Probably the DTM race last year. We won on Saturday, and were given success ballast for Race Two on Sunday. But we still had really great speed and got victory again. That was a very important weekend and put us back in the championship hunt.

What do you like most about the Red Bull Ring?

You always get amazing support from the fans and it’s in an incredibly beautiful part of the world.

1:10.072 If you could learn a new skill overnight, what would it be?

What’s something really cool guys…? [Team: “How about singing? Or learn to play an instrument?”] I can already do those! I play guitar and there’s a video on YouTube of me singing when I was a kid!

[Thinks some more… everyone waits… patiently…]

HOW TO BE A PODIUM LEGEND You’ve worked all your life to win a Formula 1 Grand Prix. Your feats on the track will live long in the memory but how can you make a lasting impression on the podium? Here’s our tips for some truly memorable podium celebrations...

Become Earth’s Mightiest Hero...

The Victory Dance Movement draws the eye, baffles the mind and dazzles the ladies.

The Dab, the Floss, Running Man, Gangnam Style – it doesn’t matter: just shake your ass and become instantly unforgettable.

Signature Pose

With every superhero owned by a Disney, or a Warner Bros, it’s a legal jungle out there teeming with copyright lawyers. But would Thor be stopped by a lawyer? Just get creative. Call yourself ‘Arachnid Boy’ or ‘Human Fledermaus’ and shake up the podium with your heroic antics.

Remember how the world loved Usain Bolt’s Lightning Bolt?

Remember how the Vettel Finger got old really quick? These things can go one of two ways. Make sure your legendary pose is in the first category.

Song of Fury Tyson Fury transformed the boxing world with his no-nonsense approach.

Bragging is so 2015.

Instead, hog the mic and lead the crowd in a jubilant sing-song while your opponents slink away to their corner.

Altogether now “Cheer up, sleepy Jean…”

Siiuuuu!!!

Oscar Shocker

Like superstar footballer Cristiano Ronaldo, just seize the microphone and shriek like you’re trying to recall an errant truffle pig.

Wait for the announcer to call your name, slap him, swear at him, burst into tears and say how unworthy you are of the win. You’ll break the internet.

14 Magic Moments F1 Red Bull Ring

redbulletin.com/f1special

H P M U I R T S ’ O I EL

AUGUST 15, 1982 Born to wealthy Roman parents, Elio de Angelis, who drove in F1 from 1979 to 1986, was one of the last old-school racing drivers. He was popular, polite, knew how to enjoy life – and loved to ente rtain his fellow racing drivers in the hote l at the bar piano. And he was quick. If you can win an F3 race in Monaco, you undoub tedly have class.

The legendar y Lotus boss Colin Chapman certainly saw it that way and brought the 22-year-old into his team . Elio’s biggest moment came at the Öste rreichring in 1982. After the turbo-driven Brab hams and Renaults had eliminated them selves from the race either by crashing or due to technical issues, he took the lead in his Lotus 91 with the Cosworth V8 engi ne, even though earlier he had been mor e than 50 seconds off the pace.

His next challenge was Keke Rosb erg in the Williams, sitting in his slips tream.

As brave as he was clever, Elio held off the attacks from the man who would become that year’s World Champion and won his first Grand Prix by the tiny mar gin of 0.05 seconds. It would be the last race Colin Chapman was to witness.

The brilliant designer, whose cars had made World Champions of Clark, Hill and Rindt, died on 16 December 1982 .

0.05 seconds is the fourth narrowest winning margin. Fractionally ahead is Ayrton Senna – 0.014 in front of Nigel Mansell (Spain, 1986), Rubens Barrichello – 0.011 from Michael Schumacher (USA, 2002) and Peter Gethin – 0.010 ahead of Ronnie Peterson (Italy, 1971).
