Not even an 'engine issue' can halt Max Verstappen's charge...
Max Verstappen came back from a brief engine stoppage, said to be the result of a sensor issue, to top FP1 for the Austrian Grand Prix .
Max Verstappen joined the Mercedes battle for P1, the Dutchman trading blows with George Russell and Hamilton. Nico Hulkenberg had a moment with Charles Leclerc, the Haas driver declaring: “All these cry babies here with the traffic.” And surprisingly, Race Control had yet to announce a single lost lap time because of track limits after the race organisers laid gravel down on the outside of the turns.Yuki Tsunoda was having a few problems and asked RB to change his steering wheel column only to be told “not now, end of the session”.
Alex Albon had a close call as he moved off the line for traffic, but wasn’t told there were actually two cars coming so returned to the racing line only to catch out Tsunoda. Pierre Gasly and Kevin Magnussen both ran wide and off well off the track.
