With the race in Austria this weekend it's time again for the official press conferences of the
FIA. This Thursday
Lewis Hamilton will join
Esteban Ocon,
Max Verstappen will sit next to
Fernando Alonso. The press conference will start at 12:30.
This week
Antonio Giovinazzi and
Sergio Perez kick off the press conference, followed by Yuki Tsunoda and Nikita Mazepin. An interesting duo are
Kimi Raikkonen and
Charles Leclerc, who briefly touched during the Styrian GP when Leclerc overtook the Finn, are lined up together.
Furthermore, teammates
Lance Stroll and
Sebastian Vettel are racing together. Stroll finished in eighth place during the race last weekend, while Vettel fell outside the points at 12th place.
Lewis Hamilton will take his place alongside
Esteban Ocon and
Valtteri Bottas will be joined by
Lando Norris.
Verstappen and Alonso
Verstappen is randomly placed next to world champion Alonso this week. A nice combination, because Alonso is part of the older generation on the grid, while Verstappen is part of the new, upcoming generation. Who knows, this might lead to some surprising moments.
