F1 2023 Austrian Grand Prix: Qualifying, Sprint, Race time in India and where to watch

For the 10th round of the 2023 season, Formula One heads to the 4.318 km long Red Bull Ring - the home of Red Bull Racing for the Austrian Grand Prix. Red Bull's posterboy Max Verstappen currently holds the joint title for the highest number of wins at the Austrian GP, i.e. three. This is also the second Sprint weekend of the season after the first one at Azerbaijan Grand Prix.

Red Bull Racing heads to its home race leading the Constructor Standings with 321 points to their name, followed by Mercedes (167) and Aston Martin (154) in second and third respectively. Verstappen continues to lead the Drivers' Championship with 195 points, 69 more than his teammate Sergio Perez who is second in the standings. 2x World Champion Fernando Alonso sits on third with 117 points so far.



If you have been keeping up with Formula One this season, you probably already know that the motorsport is not being streamed on any third party OTT platform in India, even when fans could enjoy races either on the Star Sports channel, or the Disney HotStar+ OTT platform until last year.

Instead, Formula One is promoting its own OTT video platform in India called F1 TV. To catch all the action live, one would need to opt for the more premium F1 TV Pro subscription, which is currently priced at $29.99 for the same period, or about Rs 2,461 in Indian currency. There's also a monthly plan which is priced at $3.99 (INR 327) for the Pro plan.
