Unable to keep pace with world champions Mercedes and a resurgent Ferrari, drop to third in the standings, not helped by poor Renault reliability. Even so, Daniel Ricciardo and Max Verstappen prove their star quality by taking three wins between them.

Born 30 September 1997 — Hasselt, Belgium
Belgium split from the Netherlands in 1830, but the status of Limburg was only resolved nine years later in 1839, with the division of Limburg into Belgian and Dutch parts. Hasselt became the provisional capital of the Belgian province of Limburg.

Big celebrations for Red Bull in Austria. Everyone is high-fiving and hugging. Ferrari will be furious, one assumes, though.
THE RESULT STANDS!!!
The stewards “did not consider that either driver was wholly or predominantly to blame for the incident. We consider that this is a racing incident.”
The rules are clear. It’s a matter of causing a collision and forcing a driver off track. We trust the stewards.
==>
OK, FOLLLOW the RULES then.
“The stewards taking this long suggests they find Verstappen at fault, but they’re afraid to make the call because they know it would effectively mean the death of F1 racing,” reckons Emiel de Bont. “And I guess they’re waiting for the tens of thousands of Dutch fans, who would feel mightily robbed, to have dispersed.”
On the other hand, the stewards may want to let Verstappen have the win after such a thrilling race, but need a watertight case to appease Ferrari, given what happened in Canada. Who’d be a steward, eh? Long hours.

In september, wanneer Verstappen 18 jaar wordt, kan hij als meerderjarige definitief voor de Nederlandse nationaliteit kiezen. Of hij dat gaat doen? ‘Als ik het hem vraag, zegt hij de hele tijd van wel’, aldus zijn vader. Het zal voor altijd een einde maken aan de discussie wie het supertalent mag claimen.

Verstappen: No point being in F1 if Leclerc move is punished
Max Verstappen said drivers “have to stay at home” and there is no point “being in Formula 1” if his move on Charles Leclerc to win the Austrian Grand Prix gets punished.
Red Bull driver Verstappen caught and overtook Ferrari’s Leclerc with three laps remaining, but the two made wheel-to-wheel contact as Leclerc tried to hang on around the outside.
That incident is under investigation by the stewards.
Immediately after the grand prix, Verstappen said: “It’s hard racing, otherwise we have to stay at home.
“If those things are not allowed in racing, then what’s the point of being in Formula 1?”
Leclerc had led the race from pole position and looked in control as Verstappen, who started on the front row but fell to eighth on the opening lap, charged up the order.
After losing a maiden F1 win late on for the second time this season following his Bahrain engine problem, Leclerc said: “Overall the race was good at the end I had a bit more degradation than I thought and Max came back.
“I’ll let the stewards decide. It was pretty clear in the car, I don’t know how it looked from the outside.
“We’ll see what the decision is.”
When it was suggested he did not think the move was fair, Leclerc pointed to the previous lap where Verstappen had tried to pass him on the inside but left more space on the outside.
“I was on the outside just like the lap before,” said Leclerc. “The lap before was completely fine, he left the space, a car width on the exit of the corner, but he didn’t on the other lap.
“I had to go wide and then I didn’t have any chance to come back. It’s a shame.”
Verstappen’s victory marked Red Bull’s first with new-for-2019 engine partner Honda and the Japanese manufacturer’s first win since returning to F1 in 2015.
He said: “You could see now on the straights I had good pace as well so we could make the pass.
“I’m extremely happy for the whole team and also for Honda. To win here is incredible.”

Verstappen completes stunning comeback win in Austria – but result under investigation
Charles Leclerc came agonisingly close to becoming an F1 race-winner in Bahrain – and he was denied that honour again at the Austrian Grand Prix after being overtaken two laps from the end by a brilliant Max Verstappen, who closed out his second win in two years at the Red Bull Ring. However, as the chequered flag fell the result was under investigation as the stewards announced they would review the Dutchman’s pass of Leclerc.
The two drivers enjoyed a fantastic late race scrap before the Red Bull driver nipped past long-time race-long leader Leclerc at Turn 3 on Lap 69 of 71, the duo banging wheels as Leclerc ran off the road.
Verstappen held on to cross the line and close out the fifth win of his career, and the first for a non-Mercedes runner in 2019. It also ensured Honda’s first win since 2006.
Valtteri Bottas finished third on the road for Mercedes, while a late overtake on Lewis Hamilton saw Sebastian Vettel finish fourth after making a two-stop strategy work, with Hamilton coming home in fifth, the first time he’s finished outside the top two this year.
Behind Hamilton, Lando Norris was a fantastic sixth for McLaren, holding off the Red Bull of Pierre Gasly, while Carlos Sainz, having started at the back of the grid, was eighth, ahead of the two Alfa Romeos of Kimi Raikkonen and Antonio Giovinazzi, the Italian scoring his first F1 point.

Woedende Red Bull-baas: ’We betalen miljoenen voor Renault’
Christian Horner is woedend na de motorproblemen van Max Verstappen tijdens de GP van Hongarije. De Nederlander moest al na zes ronden opgeven.
De teambaas van Red Bull Racing maakt korte metten met motorleverancier Renault. „We betalen miljoenen voor een product dat het beste ter wereld zou moeten zijn, maar dat is het zeker niet”, foetert hij bij Sky Sports. „Ik wacht de excuses van Cyril Abiteboul (Renault-baas) wel af.”
Red Bull werkt vanaf komend seizoen sowieso niet meer samen met Renault, maar met Honda.
Verstappen: ’Gewoon schijtzooi’
Max Verstappen was na afloop van de GP van Hongarije vrij duidelijk over zijn snelle uitvallen en vooral ook over de falende Renault-motor. „Gewoon schijtzooi.”
