Watch the 2026 Austrian Grand Prix live streams to find out if Lewis Hamilton and Ferrari can continue piling the pressure on the Mercedes duo of Kimi Antonelli and George Russell. The season is indeed ramping up, thanks largely to Hamilton, and Mercedes team principal Toto Wolff summed up his current form perfectly with “If he smells blood, he goes”.
Not only was Hamilton’s second stint on the medium tires in Barcelona simply outstanding, but Mercedes arguably undid themselves, first by slipping up on strategy and then when their two drivers got into a tussle, which only ended when Antonelli stopped with a power unit battery failure. The 19-year-old still leads the Drivers’ Championship, though, albeit now by 41 points.
Elsewhere, Lando Norris was fortunate to step onto the podium in Barcelona, although it was indeed a solid drive. McLaren, in fact, are only being held back by reliability concerns and excessive tire wear. If they can solve those issues, they could join Ferrari and Mercedes at the front, making the season even more exciting.
Of course, you can never count Max Verstappen out, especially at the Red Bull Ring in Spielberg, a track where he’s won four times. And, like McLaren, Red Bull have made steady progress. Verstappen was unfortunate in Monaco after starting on the front row before recovering to finish fourth in Barcelona. He’ll now be aiming to continue that momentum and finally claim his first podium of the 2026 season.
