Mercedes’ George Russell won the Austrian Grand Prix, the 11th round of the 2024 Formula 1 World Championship, after Max Verstappen and Lando Norris collided
Russell beat McLaren’s Oscar Piastri and Ferrari’s Carlos Sainz. Verstappen’s first issue was a near-miss with Norris as he exited his pitbox in the first cycle of stops, but stewards decided it wasn’t worthy of a penalty. A slow second stop for Verstappen put Norris right on his tail with 15 laps to go. Norris lunged ahead at Turn 3 on lap 59 but had to give the position back as he ran wide.
Norris lunged ahead at Turn 3 on lap 59 but had to give the position back as he ran wide into the run-off, the stewards noting that he exceeded track limits. Four laps later, Norris lunged him again at Turn 3, but Verstappen went off the track at the exit. On the following lap they collided at Turn 3, both of them sustaining punctures and crawling back to the pits. Norris was forced out with damage from the clash.
