Max Verstappen crashed at the end of the third part of qualifying for the Austrian Grand Prix. The Dutchman lost control of his RB22 just before the end of his final flying lap.
This means the Dutchman will start from fifth on the grid, despite still being firmly in contention for pole until the penultimate corner. However, pushing too hard ultimately sent him into the barriers, also triggering confusion over who had actually secured pole position under yellow flag conditions.
