F1 Austrian GP: When and how to watch the race live, TV channel, standings
Formula 1 rolls into the Styrian mountains, which provide the backdrop to the glorious Red Bull Ring. Despite being one of the shortest circuits on the calendar, the home of the Austrian Grand Prix is one of the fastest tracks and always serves up plenty of action that you won't want to miss.
Going into this weekend's race, McLaren’s Lando Norris will be looking to make amends for crashing out last time in Canada. The British racer crashed after attempting a desperate move on his team-mate Oscar Piastri, who still leads the drivers’ championship.
Montreal race winner George Russell has previously taken to the top step of the podium in Austria and will be looking to prove that his win in Canada was not a one-off, and that Mercedes has rediscovered its pace.
While Max Verstappen has shown off a new crash helmet for the race, his travelling army of fans will be watching intently to see if the Red Bull racer can avoid a one-race ban at his team's home grand prix.
And what of Ferrari drivers Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc this weekend? The pair has endured frustrating times so far this season, and the pressure is mounting for team boss Fred Vasseur.
