GEORGE RUSSELL snatched victory from the jaws of Max Verstappen and Lando Norris after the duo’s shock collision in Austria.Amid the melee Verstappen managed to rejoin the race in fifth after pitting with a ten second time penalty for ‘causing a collision’ - while Norris was forced to retire.Verstappen, at his home race in the Red Bull Ring, said on his team radio: “He forced me off again. He's just dive-bombing.
He burst out the traps at the start and pulled well clear of Norris in his McLaren who kept Russell at bay.But the comeback was on for Norris when he pitted at the same time as Verstappen - who stopped for a whopping six-and-half seconds on lap 52.Verstappen’s huge eight second lead was reduced to just three ahead of Norris in his McLaren.Lewis Hamilton just missed out on a podium finish after finishing in fourth after securing his first podium finish with third-place in Barcelona last time out.
Perez closed in on the Monaco-born driver a couple of corners later and Leclerc broke his front wing after contact with Piastri and was forced to pit before finishing in eleventh and missing out on points.
