Default Austrian Grand Prix - Who Will Win?

Will the Red Bull Ring give Red Bull wings?

TVRacer has different times. BL, check your local provider's schedule and double-check it shortly before the broadcast.

Other than the little 5 minute offsets all of the times are the same but the channels for FP3 and qualifying are different.

According to my TV channel guide they are listed as on ESPN2 instead of ESPNews. They've done that before though and the actual broadcast was on ESPNews.

It's a rough and tumble world out there, be careful everyone.

Full tread tires for this race. Normally I would say Vettel/Ferrari but the engine upgrade on the Mercs last week seemed like a big bump up in HP. Will be interesting between the two makes

Looks like Bottas is going to get the win. Vettel has a tough job ahead of him tomorrow. He's going to have to get by Hamster and Verstappen, plus his own teammate to gain ground in the championship.

Great run for Grosjean. He needs a solid result to get his confidence back and first points of the season.

Too bad "Sha" LeClerc has the grid penalty for changing the gearbox otherwise he might have scored points again!

Double DNF for Mercedes! What a dream result! Now Seb is back into the championship lead, and Ferrari as well.

Haas had a great result with a much relieved Grosjean, I'm sure.

And with all the attrition LeClerc gets points again! He made some kind of mistake early in the race, but they didn't show it. Otherwise he might have finished higher.

For Mercedes it was a dream start with Lewis taking lead, and a nightmare end with a double DNF.
Coming of age for MV-. 3 consecutive podiums.

Gotta give it to Mad Max for a stellar drive (other than his contact with Kimi). Storming start for Kimi. Too bad he overcooked it on T3.
