The Austrian Grand Prix weekend gave us a thrilling battle for Sprint Pole and decent few laps at the start of the Sprint race and then a great battle for the real Pole Position. Max Verstappen had to fight again, but ultimately came out on top.
And then we had the Grand Prix proper, which delivered us the battle of the season with the rivalry that’s been blooming between Max and Lando, finally coming to blows – leaving Norris out the race the Max down in 5th despite a puncture. This incident opened the doors to none other than George Russell who proved that to finish 1st, first you must finish.
In Fantasy GP terms, we had the podium of Russell, Piastri and Sainz with Alonso taking the fastest lap. We had a total of 1 Safety Car period and for the bonus prediction around Ricciardo’s performance, the correct answer was a) top 10 with Danny Ric finishing 9th.
Being a Sprint weekend, there were more points up for grabs than usual, here’s the overall points and then scroll on down for the breakdown across the Grand Prix and the Sprint.
