2026 F1 Austrian GP race analysis by Peter Windsor

Описание: George Russell may have converted his pole into an Austrian win but it was his Mercedes team-mate, Kimi Antonelli, and Red Bull's Max Verstappen, who lit up the skies above Spielberg. Max, after pushing George hard in the second half of the race, drove brilliantly into P2; and Kimi, who finished third, closed quickly on both George and Max in the closing laps. It was a stunning day for Red Bull, with Isack Hadjar finishing sixth in the other RB22 and the two Racing Bulls - also powered by the RBPT Ford - taking the last two points positions. Ferrari disappointed after starting P2-P3, with Sir Lewis Hamilton finishing P5 and Charles Leclerc P8; and McLaren-Mercedes could manage only a P4-P7 result. Peter in this video looks back at a hot and typical street-fighting day in the foothills of the Styrian mountains.
