Post Sprint Discussion | Austrain Grand Prix 2023

Very interesting sprint race. Battles everywhere you look.

VER comfortably ahead after an early scare, PER scraping through into 2nd.

RUS and HUL making good strategy calls salvaged their races for them.

LEC a touch unlucky in the pits messed up his attack. Getting tangled up with OCO didn’t help. SAI looked rock solid but unimaginative, just held on for dear life and drove to a podium.

STR really should have given ALO that place, every point counts if anyone is going to have even an outside chance of attacking VER for the championship.

OCO being his usual bullheaded self made him 7th, RUS raced him to the line and was 9 thousandths of a second behind.

Very entertaining. 8/10.

Actually a very enjoyable sprint! I still prefer regular race weekends, but the last minute pitstops were an exciting mixup. George seems pretty good with his strategy, too bad he couldn't find an extra tenth at the end. Oh and poor Lando losing so many positions in one corner lap 1. I hope he gets a podium this year.
