Verstappen was able to stretch the legs of his Red Bull to take the gap up towards three seconds, but in the final few laps, Leclerc could lap a tenth or two faster to gradually chip away at the margin. The Ferraris continued to dice, with Sainz seemingly carrying an early pace advantage to try and leapfrog Leclerc on the outside of Turn 3 into 4, with the red car appears to rub. He put his nose in front of Verstappen in the braking zone of Turn 3 but on the outside and off the racing line, he ran wide and then the subsequent oversteer on the less grippy asphalt allowed Leclerc to accelerate away faster and reclaim second place with a run into Turn 4. With Leclerc battling Verstappen, Sainz was given room to dive ahead into the first corner and a strong exit enabled the Spaniard to move his Ferrari to the outside and attempt a pass. After the disruption, it was Leclerc who enjoyed the marginally better launch to force Verstappen to pull to the inside line and squeeze the Ferrari closer to the pit wall. The Red Bull driver needed to defend into Turn 1 and 3 against an initially strong Ferrari threat, but as Leclerc and Carlos Sainz went wheel-to-wheel, the defending champion was able to march away to a relatively smooth triumph.

Hamilton ran out of laps to launch an attack on Magnussen and will therefore line up eighth on the grid for Sunday’s grand prix after beating Schumacher and Alfa Romeo’s Valtteri Bottas to the final point on offer.

This weekend's Formula 1 Grand Prix in Austria brings to us the second Sprint Race of the season, with Max Verstappen at Pole position.

This year Sprint Races have improved last year’s format, deciding to award points to the top eight finishers, instead of just the podium finishers like last season. Saturday: the Sprint Race day begins with another one-hour Free Practice in the morning, before heading into the new event. Given the changes the format has undergone since the first of these events was held in Silverstone during the 2021 season, this year’s Sprint Races are going to be even more decisive by awarding more points to the top finishers.

Max Verstappen took the eight points on offer for winning the sprint race for the Austrian GP at the Red Bull Ring and will start Sunday on pole.

Off track, Sebastian Vettel endured a private battle with the FIA, who summoned the four-time champion to the stewards for “his behaviour at the drivers’ meeting”. The sporting code cited in the summons referred to “Words, deeds or writings that have caused moral injury or loss to the FIA”. In what was understood to be a lengthy and animated drivers’ briefing on Friday with the race director, Vettel had expressed his frustration and walked out. The stewards who summoned him after the sprint race found he had breached the rule requiring him to attend and failed in meeting the standards required of him as a role model to other drivers. George Russell and Lewis Hamilton were fourth and eighth for Mercedes for whom this was a rescue race after a disaster qualifying session on Friday and they duly put in a herculean effort to ensure their drivers have a shot on Sunday. He started from ninth and took damage to his steering when he clipped Pierre Gasly at turn one. Hamilton and Russell crashed out of qualifying on Friday and Mercedes had needed to make significant repairs. Max Verstappen delivered victory in the Austrian Grand Prix sprint race while barely raising a sweat.
