Verstappen Second as all Red Bull Ford Powertrains-Powered Cars Score Points in Austria

SPIELBERG, Austria - Oracle Red Bull Racing and Visa Cash App Racing Bulls recorded a great team result as all four Red Bull Ford Powertrains-powered cars finished inside the top ten at a scorching Austrian Grand Prix in the Styrian hills - the home of Red Bull.

Max Verstappen led the charge with a commanding second-place finish, having recovered from a challenging qualifying session. Contact with the barriers in Q3, following a loss of rear-end grip caused by aerodynamic damage, meant he lined up fifth on the grid.

During the race, Verstappen made an immediate impact, moving up to third place within the opening three laps and crossing the line in second place, also claiming the Driver of the Day award.

Teammate Isack Hadjar qualified eighth and finished in sixth, successfully fighting multiple battles along the way. Oracle Red Bull Racing arrived in Austria with a significant upgrade package, and both drivers were able to maximise its potential.

Visa Cash App Racing Bulls’ Liam Lawson qualified and finished in ninth, similarly Arvid Lindblad started and finished in tenth, delivering another double points finish for the team and completing a clean sweep of all four Red Bull Ford Powertrains entries in the points.

Mark Rushbrook, Global Director, Ford Racing, said: “Austria was an outstanding weekend for the Red Bull Ford Powertrains partnership."

“Max showed the kind of resilience and class that defines a champion. After a difficult Saturday, to come back and claim second place is a tremendous achievement. Moments like this are the result of the incredible work happening across the entire Red Bull Ford Powertrains programme, and it is incredibly rewarding to see that effort translate into performance at the home of Red Bull.”
