Highlights

- Both drivers reached Q3, starting race from P9 and P10.

Liam Lawson says Racing Bulls make a clear step in Austria, underlined by ninth place as Arvid Lindblad completes a double-points finish in tenth after markedly stronger long-run pace.
Both drivers reach Q3 and start P9 and P10, consolidating progress. The weekend builds on Lawson’s recent form with Racing Bulls across recent rounds.
An early scare follows when Lawson reports fire on the car. Brake smoke causes discomfort for several laps, yet he holds position as temperatures stabilise and the issue quickly clears.
Lawson describes a heavy car and dense traffic in the opening stint, then improved balance later, confirming a step in long-run performance over the Austrian Grand Prix weekend.
Lawson P9 and Lindblad P10 deliver a valuable double-points haul.
Pre-race, stewards examine a practice start procedure. They clear Lawson, deeming his actions understandable in the circumstances, so no penalty affects his grid spot or preparation.
Team dynamics shift briefly as Lindblad passes after the first stint. Lawson reclaims track position with an undercut, reflecting tidy pit-wall execution and disciplined tyre-phase management.
Lindblad stays upbeat despite braking difficulties and limited confidence on the hard compound. He targets better braking modulation and tyre management to produce more consistent stints.
Stewards’ decision removes any practice-start penalty risk, keeping Lawson’s focus on race execution.
Recent upgrades underpin the trend, with improved pace and repeatability across events. That development path includes refinements tied to the RB livery and detail updates enhancing overall efficiency.
The double score trims Alpine’s advantage to 13 points, validating the car’s direction and keeping Racing Bulls relevant in a tightly packed midfield.
Focus now turns to Silverstone, where Lindblad races at home. The team targets another clean weekend at the British Grand Prix to sustain momentum and close further on Alpine.
Racing Bulls reduce Alpine’s lead to 13 points in the constructors’ standings.
