McLaren's Oscar Piastri comes into it at the top of the drivers' standings despite finishing second behind team-mate Lando Norris at Sunday's Austrian GP.

Defending champion Max Verstappen will hope to put his DNF at Spielberg behind him as he looks to stay in touch with his rivals, while fourth-place home favourite George Russell will aim to lay down another marker after emerging as a surprise championship contender.

Former Mercedes star Lewis Hamilton claimed an emotional victory at the circuit last time out in what was his first triumph in more than three years, and will need to produce another monumental shock if he is to have any chance of repeating the trick this time around.

The seven-time world champion - now at Ferrari - has yet to score a single podium finish this season and would love nothing more than to change that statistic this weekend.

And Channel 4 will be the place to watch all of the action unfold.

The build-up for Sunday's showpiece event will get under way at 1.30pm, with the live race and subsequent reaction to come after.
