Mercedes driver George Russell was handed Austrian Grand Prix victory after leading duo Max Verstappen and Lando Norris clashed wheels and flew out of contention. Britain’s Russell stayed out of trouble behind them and glided by for his second F1 triumph after winning in Brazil in 2022.
Norris and Verstappen collide. Triple world champion and standings leader Verstappen had looked poised for an easy victory on his Red Bull team’s home track after winning the sprint race and topping qualifying on Saturday. But a slow second pit-stop allowed Norris to close up behind him and on a third attempt to pass the Dutchman, their wheels touched. Norris had to retire while Verstappen limped home fifth, despite being handed a 10-second penalty for causing the collision with Norris.
