Norris struggles off the line again against flawless Verstappen in Austria

For the second day in a row, Max Verstappen had a perfect start from pole position. Verstappen immediately created a gap with Lando Norris, who had to make sure he kept George Russell behind in the first few corners. Carlos Sainz lost a place to Lewis Hamilton, while Charles Leclerc had to go in after just one lap for a broken front wing after getting into a sandwich between Oscar Piastri and Sergio Perez.
