    The 2024 Formula One season is well into its European summer of races, and after a thrilling Spanish Grand Prix last weekend, the 20 drivers head east to the Red Bull Ring for the 43rd edition of the Austrian Grand Prix.

    If you hadn't already guessed, this weekend's meeting is the home race for the team who've dominated F1 for the last few seasons — Red Bull — and after their three-time world champion Max Verstappen picked up back-to-back race wins for the third time this season in Barcelona, they'll be confident of recording another top-podium finish on home soil.

    Red Bull will hope Verstappen, his teammate Sergio Perez, and their sister team Racing Bulls-Honda RBPT's drivers Daniel Ricciardo and Yuki Tsuonda can all table top-10 finishes in Spielberg, but know that their number one, Verstappen, has a fight on his hands after being pushed all the way by Lando Norris last weekend; the McLaren hot-shot qualifying on pole and recording the race's fastest lap.

    The Austrian Grand Prix has been staged intermittently on the F1 calendar since first being held at the Zeltweg Air Base in 1963, with the Red Bull Ring, formerly the Osterreichring , hosting ever since. Those periods have included 1970-87, 1997-2003, and 2014-present, with the success of Red Bull in recent seasons suggesting this event will be on the circuit for many years to come.

    Red Bull's golden boy Verstappen has won three World Drivers' Championships in a row and helped his team to two of their six overall Constructors' Championships, and after he and Perez recorded first and third-placed finishes in 2023, either side of Ferrari's Charles Leclerc, the Austrian home crowd will be keen for more of the same this weekend.

    As one of the few events on the calendar to feature a 24-lap sprint before qualifying with points on offer, there's only one free practice session before everything is on the line. To keep pace with all the action from the Austrian Grand Prix, The Sporting News has you covered.
