Lando Norris excelled in final practice for the Austrian Grand Prix, leading the McLaren team’s dominant performance in Spielberg. Despite missing FP1, Norris topped the timesheets in FP2 and FP3, narrowly outpacing his teammate Oscar Piastri. The session began smoothly with no pitlane chaos, but the track temperature increased as the session progressed. Norris and Piastri expressed concerns about Max Verstappen closing in on them during qualifying, as the Red Bull driver showed strong pace. Ferrari displayed improvement, with Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton finishing ahead of the Mercedes duo. The top 10 was completed by Lance Stroll, Yuki Tsunoda, and Gabriel Bortoleto.
