The 1970 Austrian Grand Prix was a Formula One motor race held at Österreichring on 16 August 1970. This was the second Austrian Grand Prix and the first Formula One race at the scenic Österreichring, built to replace the bumpy and bland Zeltweg Airfield circuit. The 60-lap race was won by Ferrari driver Jacky Ickx after he started from third position. His teammate Clay Regazzoni finished second and Brabham driver Rolf Stommelen came in third.
