Named for the sponsor Hella Lighting, manufacturer of automotive lighting and electronics.

This used to be the first turn of the old Osterrichring. A chicane was added in 1976, to allow for more run-off room after Mark Donohue's fatal accident at this corner during warm-up for the 1975 Austrian Grand Prix.
