Red Bull Ring, Sunday, 29 June

Hear from McLaren Formula 1 drivers Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri, and Team Principal Andrea Stella, after the Austrian Grand Prix.

As it happened

• Start aborted. Sainz is stranded on the grid. There will be another formation lap after a short delay
• Great start for Oscar, who gets around Leclerc on the outside and up to P2
• Safety car. Collision behind at T3 between Verstappen and Antonelli who are both now out of the race
• It's a clean restart and both drivers hold position
• Lando and Oscar are swapping positions back and forth. It's very tight at the front
• Lando boxes and swaps to a Hard tyre
• Oscar stays out for a few more laps before pitting for the Hard tyre
• Lando and Oscar trade fastest laps midway through the race
• Lando boxes again and swaps back to a new Medium tyre
• Oscar boxes, also for a new Medium tyre. Lando is through in the lead, with two backmarkers between him and Oscar
• Lando seals the victory with Oscar just behind for a McLaren 1-2 - the first in Austria for 25 years

Pit stops	2, Lap 20 [Medium/Hard] (3.2s) and Lap 52 [Hard/Medium] (2.8s)

"I’m very happy with the result, a 1-2 is the perfect finish for us as a team. Oscar and I had a great battle, which was a lot of fun, and we were able to maximise the pace of the car and the strategy.

"Thanks to the team for the upgrades and all of their work to get us to a place where the car was able to pull away. Now, onto my favourite weekend of the year, Silverstone."

Started	3rd
Finished	2nd
Fastest lap	1m07.924s on Lap 59 (1st)
Pit stops	2, Lap 24 [Medium/Hard] (3.6s) and Lap 53 [Hard/Medium] (2.1s)

"That was an intense race. I'm happy we've come away with a 1-2 after some really good racing. After a solid start, I was close to the win, but it was tough to make progress to close the gap again after the first stop.

"A big thank you to the team for the great car they've given us. To have the pace to pull away from the field whilst battling each other was impressive, and something we can be proud of. Now, onto Silverstone."

“A perfect conclusion to a very competitive weekend, and a nice way to bounce back after a tough week in Canada. It’s been made possible by great work from the trackside team, and also a wonderful effort from everyone at the factory to deliver an upgrade that has made the MCL39 a faster car.

“The racing was great today between Lando and Oscar: fair, robust in a couple of moments, but with mutual respect. This is exactly what we want to see between our drivers.  Lando drove a perfect weekend with a dominant Pole position, which he managed to convert into his third victory of the season. Oscar made a position at the start, overtaking Charles Leclerc, and then stayed right on Lando’s gearbox for the first stint and very close until the end of the race. 

“We’re going to enjoy the moment – but not for very long as our focus must shift to the British Grand Prix. We want another strong performance at our home race, for our technical partners, our commercial partners and most of all, our many fans at Silverstone who have been with us all the way on this remarkable journey.”
