The Austrian Grand Prix has so far been dominated by Red Bull, as has been the case all season, with Verstappen finishing ahead of team-mate Sergio Perez in the sprint race. There was though some drama, with the Dutchman less than impressed with Perez after he was forced wide.
The two-time F1 world champion edged Charles Leclerc in Friday’s session too, which decided the grid for Sunday’s race, and so Verstappen is well placed to make it five wins in a row.
