Lando Norris continued his impressive 2025 Formula 1 campaign with a thrilling victory at the Austrian Grand Prix. The British McLaren driver made the most of his pole position, converting it into a lead at Turn 1, and held off a fierce challenge from his teammate, Oscar Piastri, to clinch the win.
Despite Piastri’s strong push, which briefly saw him take the lead, Norris managed to reclaim control and crossed the line for his third win of the season. The victory also marked his first since his triumph at the Monaco Grand Prix last month.
Ferrari made a strong return at the Red Bull Ring with Charles Leclerc securing third place, while Lewis Hamilton finished in fourth for Mercedes. George Russell also impressed with a fifth-place finish.
The race, however, was a disappointing one for Max Verstappen, who was eliminated on the first lap, cutting short his chances of extending his championship lead.
