Red Bull’s homecoming, Ferrari moving forward + we build the ‘ultimate World Champion’ – Austrian GP preview ft McLaren’s Andrea Stella

Red Bull return to their home race in Austria having joined an exclusive club of constructors to win 100 Grands Prix, after Max Verstappen’s victory in Canada. The Dutchman is now 69 points clear of teammate Sergio Perez in the drivers’ standings and plenty more are on offer this weekend because the Red Bull Ring will host the second sprint race of the season.
Tom Clarkson is joined by 1996 F1 World Champion Damon Hill to reflect on where the Championship has potentially been won and lost in the last three races. After that stellar podium in Canada, where Verstappen was joined by Fernando Alonso and Lewis Hamilton, TC and DH discuss which traits they’d take from each driver to build the ultimate World Champion - inspired by the driver rating categories of EA SPORTS F1 23.
The thrilling battle between Aston Martin and Mercedes is also on the agenda, along with the progress of Ferrari and Williams after much better results in Montreal. Plus, McLaren Team Principal Andrea Stella drops by to talk about their upgrades for the next few races, and Tom and Damon answer your questions in Ask The Nation.
