Just days after an action-packed race at Silverstone, the 2022 F1 season continues at pace with the Austrian Grand Prix.
Max Verstappen's championship lead took a slight dent following his struggles with car damage last time out, but the Dutchman still has a 34-point advantage over teammate Sergio Perez.
Can he maintain that at Red Bull's home event, or will Ferrari have a say in the matter?
The Sprint will return in Austria for the second of three appearances in the 2022 season, meaning that the weekend proceedings look a little different to usual.
Free Practice 1 will take place as normal on Friday at 12:30 UK time, before traditional qualifying happens later in the day at 16:00.
A second 60-minute practice session is scheduled for 11:30 on Saturday morning, and this will be followed by the Sprint at 15:30, which will determine the grid for Sunday's race. The main Grand Prix starts at 14:00.
RacingNews365.com will be on hand to cover all of the action and you can find our live blog here. We will also have exclusive interviews, news and analysis throughout the entire weekend in Austria.
