This style of anthem is… different. But I like it. Put a few quid on Lando doing well. Just getting a feeling it’s going to be ‘rough’ between the front two.

I don’t think that was even the Austrian national anthem was it?
Looking forward to the start from the 3 British drivers.
Lewis obviously needs to make a perfect start to challenge the RB.
Norris seems to loose a few places early on, so he too needs to keep that 3rd place for as long as possible.
And Russell has driven the uncompetitive Williams brilliantly. Maybe a top 10 finish?

Beautiful setting around this circuit.
Lando and Perez is an interesting battle
Gasli out.
Come on Norris! Looks like Russell had a good start hope he gets some points (then joins Mercedes next season!)
Any sign of Bottas getting anywhere near Perez and Lando? When he ends up down the grid he tends to struggle
Lando is fantastic wheel to wheel.
On the other hand... Leclerc doing Leclerc things.

What's up with McLaren? Both cars suddenly dropping like flies
Although I understand why they don't want to fight Red Bull and Mercedes, it's a shame seeing Norris just letting drivers pass him.
Could be strategy with Lando, probably wasn't going to stop a red bull all race so why wreck the tyre?
Poor Russell in 8th. Something awful always happens when he is set to win points. Fully expecting his steering wheel to fall off.
Agreed. I understood not trying to reel in Hamilton and Verstappen but surely he could try and fight Perez and Bottas?
Strategic loss of two places without a fight when you're on a podium spot with a McLaren. I find that hard to believe
I really like this track.
Red Bulls investment in F1 is bonkers. 2 teams, one of the better tracks and a young driver academy which has produced Vettel, Max, Danny Ric, Gasly and others.

yea but it was a fight for a podium place on lap 10. Much more important to make sure they finish 4th at the end of the season and beat Ferrari to a very significant amount of prize money
I could be totally wrong
Did Max finish his tires already...
This race needs rain, and lots of rain.
They've just said about thunder storms in the area. Please hit the circuit with some rain...
A US team with a car covered in Russian flags is still absurd
Come on George.
Steiner is brutal 
Steiner gave Mazepin a spinning top
Lewis messed up
Is it owned by the Trump org?
Russell has a long pit stop. Because obviously 
fecking Williams, finally have pace for points, reliability kicks in.
Ffs unlucky George. Hopefully won’t cost him too much.
Bad Pitt stop from red bull. That's very unusual. Could really cost them if Perez is stranded
Oh poor Russell. Hopefully there's some rain and he comes back into play for some points
George Russell is cursed
Russell needs a better team
Urgh Bottas
Urgh Bottas
Absolutely sickening for Russell there earlier. He has the worst luck. Bottas got some luck for once in Perez having that slow stop.
Yes indeed. So frustrating to see him go from 8th to 18th. But at least the car was looking reasonable up to that point.
Really could do with some rain
So frustrating there was all these suggestions of rain, but nothing
It goes from bad to worse for Russell in a weekend that looked so promising. Sad.
Russell out.
Well let's hope that what does not kill you makes you stronger.
