Austrian GP

Red Bull’s Max Verstappen dominated at his team’s own track for the second time in a week to take control of the drivers’ title race.

Verstappen’s victory in the Austrian Grand Prix was his fourth in five races and moves him into a 32-point lead over championship rival Lewis Hamilton.

The Mercedes driver had a troubled race and finished fourth behind team-mate Valtteri Bottas and McLaren’s Lando Norris.

And Verstappen’s domination raises questions as to the state of Hamilton’s hopes of an eighth title this year.

Further down the field, George Russell agonisingly missed out on scoring a point for Williams for the first time when he was passed for 10 place by Alpine’s Fernando Alonso with three laps to go.
