Formula 1 traveled to the Red Bull Ring in the town of Spielberg in Styria, Austria, for the 2018 Austrian Grand Prix, which was a classic brawl.

Formula 1 traveled to the Red Bull Ring for the Austrian Grand Prix for what was a spectacular follow-up race to the previous contest at the Circuit Paul Ricard. The host track of the Austrian Grand Prix has seen a multitude of name changes over the years. It started out as the Österreichring (1969-1995), changed to the A1-Ring (1996-2004) and is currently called the Red Bull Ring.

The 2017 Austrian Grand Prix saw Valtteri Bottas take a rare win away from his Mercedes-AMG Petronas Motorsport teammate Lewis Hamilton.

In 2018, Red Bull Racing’s Max Verstappen was able to drive a flawless race in which tire management was the focal point. This paired with heads-up pit strategy from the pit lane was enough to connect the dots and give Verstappen his fourth career Formula 1 win.

Here are the post-race grades after the 2018 Austrian Grand Prix.
