F1 has moved back into a long European section this weekend, coming back to Styria for the Austrian Grand Prix.

Max Verstappen's 'Orange Army' will be well and truly ensconced in the stands, at the home race of the reigning champion's Red Bull team.

A recent incident between the pair at the Spanish GP has placed Verstappen on the cusp of a one-race ban from the sport, however, and the Dutchman will have to be on his best behaviour during qualifying, and throughout the weekend.

He and Russell will likely be challenging the two McLaren drivers for pole position on Saturday, as the 2025 championship battle continues to thrill.

But who will come out on top in qualifying, and how can you watch it in your region? Keep reading to find out!
