10 things we learned from the 2023 F1 Austrian Grand Prix

Max Verstappen stormed to his seventh win in nine races at Formula 1's Austrian Grand Prix, dominating both the sprint and the main event. But an off-track battle overshadowed the action, with a furore emerging over track limits violations resulting in a change to the final classification hours after the race. Here's more on that and the other big topics from last weekend

On-track, the 2023 edition of the Austrian Grand Prix offered plenty of wheel-to-wheel action, arguably yielding one of the more exciting Formula 1 races of the year.

But many of its biggest talking points were off it - and quite literally too, as a track limits storm raged during and after the race at the Red Bull Ring.

The result itself was familiar, as Max Verstappen streaked to his seventh win in nine races, although Ferrari enjoyed an uptick in fortunes in Austria to beat its rivals at Mercedes and Aston Martin. Although multiple track limits violations pockmarked the field with in-race penalties to serve, Aston's post-event protest uncovered more offences and shuffled the final results once again as the FIA dished out more punishments.

Here's our customary 10 things that we've learned from this year's Austrian Grand Prix.
