Bernie Ecclestone is up on the podium with the delegates. He'll be 96 years old in October. #F1 #AustrianGP

Russell: "Do you have drinks in the car?" Verstappen: "I do drink, but it gets really hot. Like a tea." The drink is usually an isotonic aimed at replenishing salts. But because it's around a lot of the electronics and engine components, it isn't that cold during the race. #F1 #AustrianGP

Drivers' Championship after the #AustrianGP. Russell now within 40 points of Antonelli, Hamilton relegated to P3: 1. Antonelli - 171 points 2. Russell - 131 points 3. Hamilton - 125 points 4. Piastri - 80 points 5. Norris - 79 points 6. Leclerc - 79 points 7. Verstappen - 73 points #F1

The biggest disappointment has to be Ferrari: Hamilton P5 and Leclerc P8, and it looked like they were in that battle for P2. Leclerc carried damage that affected his tyre management, and then Hamilton pitted during the VSC, which gave up too much track position. #F1 #AustrianGP

No chance of a hydration break for Russell in the sweltering #AustrianGP heat: "Drinks system failed, so I'm a little bit thirsty!" #F1

Big raft of upgrades for Red Bull this weekend has put Verstappen in the mix. Think they'll rue extending their last pit stop. Russell and Mercedes played dare with Safety Cars/VSCs again, still think he needs a proper answer to the blistering pace of those around him. #F1 #AustrianGP

Russell wins the #AustrianGP! Verstappen holds on to P2 by 0.3s at the line from Antonelli. #F1

About 3.7s separates the top three with 3 laps to go. Antonelli is now within a second of Verstappen! #F1 #AustrianGP

Red Bull lost around nine seconds leaving Verstappen out for a couple of laps at the end of the last stint. When you look at his lap times, he's two tenths quicker than Russell. Get out of jail free if you're Mercedes. #F1 #AustrianGP

Russell has quite a nice bit of free air now after lapping Lawson. Gap is down to 5.8s between him and Verstappen with 12 to go. #F1 #AustrianGP

Russell ran wide at T1 the previous lap! Verstappen now 6.9s behind him. #F1 #AustrianGP

Blunt assessment of the situation for Leclerc after he was overtaken by Hadjar: "These tyres are fucked." #F1 #AustrianGP

Fastest lap of the race for Antonelli. He's closing in on Verstappen, gap is 4.7s. #F1 #AustrianGP

Verstappen gained a bit on Russell during the VSC. Gap now 8.7s with 18 laps to go. #F1 #AustrianGP

Brief VSC. One of the bollards has come loose at T3 after Albon hit it. #f1 #AustrianGP

Norris has been noted for a pit lane infringement. He's currently P8. #F1 #AustrianGP

Red Bull pits Verstappen. It's the classic 'reel him in at the end and overtake at T3 with a bit of contact' strategy for him now. #F1 #AustrianGP

A VSC or Safety Car would be a headache for Russell at this stage. #F1 #AustrianGP

Russell pits and emerges in P3. Verstappen is now in the lead. Verstappen's team radio: "So, yeah, best you can at this stage of the race is probably to build a bit of a tyre offset." #F1 #AustrianGP

Alonso is now noted for ignoring blue flags. #F1 #AustrianGP

Five-second time penalty for Alonso for speeding in the pit lane. #F1 #AustrianGP

Hamilton is losing time behind Piastri. He's reminded by the team how important for his race it is while he's on the soft tyre this stint. #F1 #AustrianGP

Gap now 1.8s between Verstappen and Russell. #F1 #AustrianGP

Leclerc's just been mugged for two places by Piastri and Hamilton. He's picked up a bit of damage on his front wing end-plate after slight contact with Piastri at T3. #F1 #AustrianGP

Alonso has been noted for speeding in the pit lane. Albon and Ocon were also noted for yellow flag infringements by the stewards. #F1 #AustrianGP

Antonelli has also cut the gap to Verstappen to 9s using the traffic they've hit at the front. Russell is keeping steady with a 3.8s lead. #F1 #AustrianGP

Fastest lap of the race for Verstappen. He's now 4.5s behind Russell with no traffic in between them. #F1 #AustrianGP

Antonelli is unhappy with his brakes: "Bono, what is happening with these brakes? I have no confidence..." Bono: "You have a brake split mate, so one is hotter than the other." #F1 #AustrianGP

The pit entry is now closed because they've recovered Sainz's car. Back to green flag. #F1 #AustrianGP

Ferrari wanted to pit Hamilton under the VSC earlier: Engineer: "Box, box, box." Hamilton: "You told me too late..." Engineer: "We tried..." #F1 #AustrianGP

VSC! Sainz has stopped on the start/finish straight. #F1 #AustianGP

Russell has just responded to the threat of Verstappen behind with the fastest lap of the race. Gap is 3.4s between them. #F1 #AustrianGP

Aggressive from Verstappen on Hamilton for net P2. Overtakes him at T3, Hamilton then gets past using the boost into T4, then Verstappen jinks to the inside at T6 and makes Hamilton run wide. #F1 #AustrianGP

No further action on Hamilton forcing another driver off track. #F1 #AustrianGP

A fast 2.4s pit stop for Verstappen and he's out in P6 behind Hamilton. Now, what does Mercedes do with Russell? #F1 #AustrianGP

Russell is possibly trying to sell the other teams a dummy with his latest team radio message: "I think it's all surface overheating. The one-stop may be possible." #F1 #AustrianGP

Hamilton has been noted by the stewards for forcing another driver off track. #F1 #AustrianGP

Hamilton pits and rejoins in P11. Smart thinking from Ferrari, as Antonelli was closing in on him and Verstappen after their battle. They were also losing a bit of time to Russell, who's 5.4s clear of Verstappen. #F1 #AustrianGP

Verstappen unhappy with Hamilton's defence: "That's a penalty. Clear penalty." #F1 #AustrianGP

A very entertaining scrap between Hamilton and Verstappen for P2. #F1 #AustrianGP

Death, taxes, Perez has been noted for a false start. Although not going to impact his race because he's out. #F1 #AustrianGP

Piastri is under investigation after the race for failing to follow the race directors instructions on maximum delta times. This was during the reconnaissance laps to the grid. #F1 #AustrianGP

Double retirement for Cadillac. Both drivers reported some sort of overheating issue. #F1 #AustrianGP

They're all having to manage some sort of heat issue. It's 34.6°C air temperature. Crazy. Maybe we do need water breaks. #F1 #AustrianGP

Lawson team radio: "I'm on fire. I've got fire in my car." Still out on track battling with Hadjar for P8. #F1 #AustrianGP

Verstappen makes an opportunistic move on Antonelli and Leclerc for P3 after the Mercedes driver ran wide again at T1 trying to overtake the Ferrari. #F1 #AustrianGP

Hamilton overtakes Leclerc with a move at T4. Antonelli went off at T1 and T3, but somehow stays ahead of Verstappen. Russell leads. #F1 #AustrianGP

Kimi Antonelli and Verstappen's #AustrianGP only lasted three corners last year. I suspect both will be hoping it lasts considerably longer this time from P4 and P5 on the grid. #F1

Everyone is starting on the medium tyre apart from Bortoleto and Sainz, who are on the softs. #F1 #AustrianGP

Lawson will be investigated after the race for failing to follow the race director's instructions on practice starts. It's an odd uphill pit lane at the Red Bull Ring, so they're only allowed to do them once they've rounded the first corner. #F1 #AustrianGP
