Abstract
Electroweak radiative corrections to the Z peak are determined in the unitary gauge. Peculiarities of this gauge are discussed. A gauge-invariant expression for the weak loop corrections is presented. An approximate cross section formula based on partial Z widths may be derived from the exact one loop calculations.
