Styrian Grand Prix

Channel 4, today, 6pm

Steve Jones, David Coulthard and Mark Webber present highlights of the eighth race of the season.

The Red Bull Ring has seen its fair share of controvers­ial moments over the years, and with overtaking guaranteed, it surely won’t disappoint this time, as the battle for the championsh­ip continues to heat up following last week’s race in France, won by Max Verstappen.

Eventual world champion Lewis Hamilton took the chequered flag in this race last year, thanks in part to stupendous performanc­e in wet qualifying, in which he took pole by more than 1.2 seconds. Hamilton led the entire race, headed only at the pit-stops, as team-mate Valtteri Bottas overtook Verstappen late on for second.
