Meg and Spanners go over the Verstappen-Norris collision and George Russell’s win

Meg and Spanners are back to cover the Austrian Grand Prix! First, they address the ongoing race between Max Verstappen and Lando Norris, the eventual contact made in lap 64 that caused both to pit, and whether Verstappen or Norris is to blame (02:17). They discuss George Russell’s quiet but competent performance that allowed him to win the race once Verstappen and Norris fell out in front of him and what this means for Mercedes (22:02). They discuss the new track limits and their effectiveness and potential dangers (30:33) as well as the team fighting within Haas and Alpine (39:21). They go over yet another bad performance from Fernando Alonso (43:31) and another sad and forgettable race from Leclerc (46:33). Finally, they discuss the drama regarding Jos Verstappen driving in the Legends Parade and what this could mean for Max Verstappen’s future with Red Bull and Sainz’s free agency.
