THE PREDICTION
Max Verstappen made it back-to-back wins thanks to a victory in last week’s Styrian Grand Prix and he will now go in search of the hat-trick in another race that his Red Bull side will be desperate to win. Back at the Red Bull Ring for the second week in succession but this time for the Austrian Grand Prix, Verstappen will look to further extend his lead at the top of the drivers’ championship standings. He has been consistently good all season and with his pace shining through last week, a repeat performance is on the cards here.
