The Formula 1 circus returns to Europe with the Austrian GP as Red Bull will be on home soil in Spielberg; Watch all sessions live on Sky Sports F1 - with lights out for Grand Prix on Sunday at 2pm
Tuesday 4 July 2023 09:07, UK
Formula 1's second Sprint weekend is here as the Austrian Grand Prix marks the return of F1 in Europe, following a trip to Montreal, where Red Bull recorded their 100th win.
Max Verstappen led from start to finish to take his sixth win of the season and extended his lead in the drivers' championship to 69 points over Sergio Perez.
Perez could only recover to sixth after a disappointing qualifying and will need to start making inroads into his championship deficit to stand a chance of winning the title.
Fernando Alonso and Lewis Hamilton had an intense race-long battle for second in Montreal, with the Aston Martin driver coming out on top.
Behind the former team-mates, Ferrari showed excellent race pace and will be buoyed by Charles Leclerc's victory from 12 months ago in Spielberg, which was their last win in F1.
Austria will host the second Sprint weekend, so Qualifying for the Grand Prix will take place on Friday, with the Sprint Shootout and the Sprint on Saturday, before the Austrian GP itself on Sunday from 2pm.
Every session from the Red Bull Ring is live on Sky Sports F1, along with coverage of the F2 and F3 events also taking place throughout the weekend.
Build-up to Sunday's Grand Prix begins at 12:30pm ahead of lights out at 2pm.
