Speedweek

Speedweek is an Austrian motorsport media brand that began as a weekly print magazine in 2008 and today operates primarily as the online motorsport platform SPEEDWEEK.com under Red Bull Media House. It was founded by Günther Wiesinger, a former editor-in-chief of Motorsport aktuell, together with Red Bull owner Dietrich Mateschitz. The print edition appeared weekly with a circulation of 75,000 copies, published by Red Bulletin Schweiz AG, a subsidiary of Red Bull Media House; Wiesinger served both as editor-in-chief and as managing director of the company. The final printed issue was published on 27 November 2012, after which the brand continued as a digital offering. As an online platform, Speedweek covers a broad range of motorsport. Its reporting spans the major racing series such as Formula 1, DTM, and the motorcycle and Superbike World Championships, as well as rally, endurance and track racing, air racing, motocross, and the history of motorsport. The homepage presents a continuous news feed with race reports, results, and highlights, reflecting its positioning as a current, results-driven motorsport news source for German-speaking and international audiences. Speedweek's identity is closely tied to the Red Bull media ecosystem, giving it access to coverage of series and events in which Red Bull is heavily involved, from Formula 1 to motocross and the FIA WEC. Its editorial scope and frequent updates make it a reference point for fans seeking race results, schedules, and broadcast information. The brand thus represents a transition from traditional print motorsport journalism to a digital-first model within a major media house.
