The first session of the 2025 Austrian Grand Prix is in the books with George Russell topping the times in Spielberg. Formula 1 has reached the 11th race of the 2025 season with Red Bull hoping for a good result at their home grand prix. With a new race engineer in his ears, Max Verstappen went second fastest with Oscar Piastri in third.

The first practice session at the Austrian Grand Prix is in the books, with Mercedes driver George Russell topping the timing sheets ahead of Max Verstappen. But the driver that perhaps impressed the most will not be in the car for the rest of the weekend.

Oscar Piastri has a 22-point lead over teammate Lando Norris in the standings after 10 races of the ongoing Formula 1 season, with the Australian claiming five victories to Norris' two so far. Reignin
