Formula 1 returns to the scenic Styrian mountains for Round 11 of the season at the Red Bull Ring, with the title battle intensifying as Oscar Piastri leads the standings just ahead of Lando Norris and Max Verstappen.
George Russell, fresh off a Canadian GP win, will look to replicate his 2024 triumph in Austria, while Verstappen seeks redemption at Red Bull’s home race where he holds the records for most wins, poles, and laps led.
Despite McLaren’s dominance, Mercedes’ resurgence and Ferrari’s upgrades add unpredictability to a circuit known for overtaking and drama, especially after last year’s Norris-Verstappen collision opened the door for Russell’s surprise win.
The weekend will enjoy dry conditions with highs of 28°C, offering ideal racing weather. Verstappen’s pole streak at the Red Bull Ring stands at five and he’ll be chasing a sixth with the support of the Orange Army.
Alex Dunne and Dino Beganovic will appear in FP1 for McLaren and Ferrari respectively, while the spotlight is also on Yuki Tsunoda, determined to end his rough patch at a circuit where he once claimed F2 pole. With Ferrari’s Sainz still holding the lap record from 2020 and both Mercedes and McLaren in the mix, the 2025 Austrian GP promises another unpredictable and high-stakes battle.
