Valtteri Bottas wins the Austrian GP

Valtteri Bottas won the Austrian Grand Prix in 2017 and 2020. In 2017, Bottas held off Sebastian Vettel's challenge to win the race from pole position, with Daniel Ricciardo finishing third and Lewis Hamilton fourth. Bottas celebrated his win at the Red Bull Ring in Spielberg, Austria.

In 2020, Bottas won the first race of the new Formula One season in Austria, as Lewis Hamilton was demoted to fourth following a five-second time penalty. Bottas, who led every lap in a peerless performance, crossed the line just 0.6 seconds ahead of his Mercedes teammate. However, Hamilton was involved in a crash with Red Bull driver Alex Albon in the closing stages, resulting in a penalty that dropped him to fourth place. Ferrari driver Charles Leclerc moved up to second, and Lando Norris took the first podium of his career to finish third.

The Austrian Grand Prix is usually televised and can be streamed online. Sky Sports typically provides live coverage of the race in the UK, while Channel 4 holds the rights to show F1 highlights on terrestrial TV. In the US, ESPN carries the race, and F1 TV Pro offers live streaming internationally in select countries.

Lewis Hamilton's first race of his championship defence

Hamilton's dazzling debut season in 2007 had been the only bright spot in a turbulent year for McLaren, and the feud between the two drivers culminated in Alonso's angry departure from the team. Hamilton, on the other hand, assumed the role of team leader in 2008, and en route to carving out five victories and seven other podium finishes, he incurred the wrath of several overtaken rivals, who accused him of arrogance and dangerous driving.

The championship was far from a foregone conclusion and came down to the final race in Brazil. There, Hamilton needed to finish at least fifth for Ferrari's Felipe Massa to not clinch the title with a win in his home race. The grand finale, on a serpentine Interlagos circuit made more treacherous by rain, produced one of the most thrilling climaxes in the annals of any sport. Massa mastered the chaotic conditions perfectly, crossing the finish line first and scoring the points necessary to become champion. However, Hamilton overtook another car with about 300 meters to go, finishing in fifth place and becoming the World Champion by a single point.

Hamilton's first race of his championship defence was dramatic both on and off the track, and while it was ultimately Valtteri Bottas who won the race, Hamilton finished runner-up. However, he was demoted to fourth following a five-second penalty after a crash with Red Bull driver Alexander Albon in the closing stages. The incident denied Albon the most unlikely of maiden victories, and Red Bull team principal Christian Horner went on to say that Hamilton should apologise to his young charge.
