Max Verstappen once again showed his class on track this afternoon in Spielberg to take the victory in the F1 Sprint at the Austrian Grand Prix.

In the early stages, the Red Bull star relinquished the lead to McLaren's Lando Norris at one stage, but the Dutchman soon regained the top spot, ensuring he did not do so again throughout the remainder of the 100km dash.

Norris was soon overtaken by team-mate Oscar Piastri, who eventually took P2 despite Norris looking to repay the favour in the latter stages of the race.

Elsewhere in Austria, Lewis Hamilton's difficult weekend continued given that there were high expectations on him and Mercedes coming into the weekend.

The British star eventually finished P6, with both team-mate George Russell and Ferrari's Carlos Sainz ahead of him.

After a disastrous sprint qualifying session on Friday, Lewis Hamilton struggled in Spielberg once again in Saturday's early session, finishing sixth, behind the Ferrari of Carlos Sainz in fifth and team-mate George Russell in fourth. Hamilton did finish ahead of Charles Leclerc, at least.

Red Bull’s Sergio Perez took the final point-scoring position in P8 in another disappointing afternoon for the Mexican.
