F1 digest: ‘very big chance’ Daniel Ricciardo could
stay at Red Bull
Verstappen won his team’s home race at the Red Bull Ring
finishing ahead of the Ferrari duo Kimi Raikkonen and Sebastian
Vettel. Raikkonen set a new lap record of 1:06.957 while Vettel
regained the lead in the F1 championship after Mercedes’s Lewis
Hamilton retired in the 64th lap.
It was a double did not finish for Mercedes after Valtteri
Bottas, who qualified in pole position, lost hydraulic pressure,
the BBC reports, and his end ended on lap 14.
For Hamilton it was his first retirement for 34 races, says
Sky Sports, and he is now one point behind
Vettel in the title race.
Verstappen, who was cheered on by 18,000 Dutch fans, said
after his victory: “It was amazing, very hard to manage the tyres,
lot of blistering, but we managed to hand on.
“It was amazing to win at the Red Bull Ring with so many
Dutch fans here. I needed to catch up with the points, today was a
very good day for me and I hope we can continue like
this.”
New championship leader Vettel said: “A positive day but
it could’ve been better.”

Max Verstappen has made a little bit of
history today – his fourth career F1 win has tied Bruce McLaren and
Eddie Irvine for the most by any driver who has never taken a pole
