The 23-year-old Red Bull Racing driver led all 71 laps en route to his fifth Grand Prix victory of the season at the Red Bull Ring for the Austrian GP.
Max Verstappen put his car in parc-ferme, climbed out of the car and hopped over the barrier to celebrate with his Red Bull Racing team, at the team’s home track. While not a flashy, dominant victory, he conserved his tires to mitigate Kimi Raikkonen cutting his seven-second lead to a second and a half.
Nico Rosberg attempted to stop Lewis Hamilton's pass on him going into Turn 2, but the block backfired, he lost his front wing and his teammate and main rival for the championship drove on to score the victory in the Austrian Grand Prix.
