The second race at the Red Bull Ring introduced some variations compared to the first race, where the top starting drivers mostly maintained their positions.
Right at the start of the race, the safety car was out in the first lap, and Russell, starting from eighth, fell four positions.
The Williams car is relatively poor, so it's understandable he lost so many positions.
After the race restarted, Norris, who was in superb form during qualifying, started battling with Perez, and Hamilton was ready to squeeze his way in upon seeing this.
However, due to insufficient space, his attempt backfired, and he ended up losing quite a bit of speed. After all, it was just a restart, and they hadn't pulled apart, so seeing Hamilton's mistake, Qin Miao took advantage and moved up to fourth.
In the same lap, as Perez, who was still contesting with Norris, entered T5 side by side, Norris, on the inside line, squeezed him off the track, sending him into the gravel beyond the track perimeter.
