There’s no way RB or Merc would allow that. Ferrari need to get their shit together.

Perez getting stuck behind the Haas cars is disappointing from him.
And of course as I type that he gets past
Admirable stupidity
Being third in a DRS train is always the worst
Albon ruining races for others
Yeap he's having a mare
actually not a bad race, forget the winner Max has it in the bag, but the rest is good racing.

both HAAS's fecking up Lewis race
Well done by Schumacher tbh
I dunno why people complain so much about sprint races? This is much better fun than qualifying!
Italians just love him I know, I knowVerstappen first WDC gift wrapped by michael masi.

Iam not a fan , I will be honest, but enjoying this.
FFS the Mercedes not being able to get past the HAAS .
Good defending from them and the car is decent.

Perez showing his experience from midfield battles to make it through that
Nice to see Haas looking for all the world like a solid midfield team again after the last couple of years of being a joke.
just shows how difficult it is 3rd car in a DRS train.
Fair play to both HAAS drivers, driving a cracking race.

Mick learning from the best
Lewis STFU for god sake and drive, stop moaning !
Not enough laps, needed to be longer. Was just getting good.
Mick was fantastic today, some perfect positional defending. Shame Kmag hung him out to dry.
Too easy for Max. Ferrari need to get their shit together tomorrow.
He had a legit gripe, Mick was off track nearly every lap out of the last corner.
That was entertaining stuff with the Haas cars, and excellent driving from Schumacher. Good racing. The Haas race engineers should have told K-Mag to slow down and give Mick DRS, but as always Haas don't have a clue on strategy.
Thats was crap. Here's an idea. Make it a seperate 'sprint' championship but with the sprint order decidesld by drivers standing in reverse. Doesnt affect the actual championship and we get the reverse grid that sprint races need so badly.
Red Bull too quick today, good racing from Sainz too, i am guessing Ferrari ordered him to slow down, it's just one point difference at end of the day.
Shame for Mick, but good driving.
Shame for Mick, but good driving.
Magnussen left Mick behind at the worst time. Could have been points for both
easy win for Max, I see the same for the main race also.
Masterclass from HAAS defending Lewis.

I disagree , I thought it was a decent sprint race, best one I have seen.
I still don't like them.
They are here to stay , there is 6 next season !
It wont be so easy if Ferrari dont fight eachother at the start. That was was screwed them.
by the time they finished squabbling they were 2.5 behind and with very similar speeds it's almost impossible to catch up again.
They have to get DRS and keep behind.
That was really fun. So much happening in just 20 odd laps
Snorefest
You make good points and yeah team orders might come in to it.
Herbert asking Perez the dumbest questions
Needs more action with tracks that allow more overtaking but there’s lots of jeopardy and not that much reward.
Alonso is just unlucky. What a wasted talent.

Austrian GP Sprint Race Result
Seb in trouble.
Sebastian Vettel has been summoned to the Austrian GP's stewards' office for his "behaviour" at Friday evening's drivers' meeting at the Red Bull Ring.
Vettel has apparently landed himself in hot water for allegedly breaching Article 12.1.2 f) of the International Sporting Code and Article 20.1 of the FIA Formula One Sporting Regulations.
The article relates to: "Any words, deeds or writings that have caused moral injury or loss to the FIA, its bodies, its members or its executive officers, and more generally on the interest of motor sport and on the values defended by the FIA."
No idea what punishment he might get, already at the back of the grid.

Bit like that wasn't it.
The only thing a sprint race offers is something marginally better than a free practice.
I would dearly love to see a race with all the drivers in the same type of car. And that car with no driver aids at all. Basic racing car, manual gearbox and clutch, same tyres and same aero setup.
Verstappen MY man.
