The results of the Austrian Grand Prix remained uncertain long after the chequered flag on Sunday with a successful protest by Aston Martin likely to lead to retrospective penalties.
Max Verstappen's victory for Red Bull did not appear in danger however, with the double world champion more than five seconds clear of Ferrari's Charles Leclerc, who was in turn well ahead of Red Bull's Sergio Perez.
Six drivers were handed five second penalties during the race, including Ferrari's Carlos Sainz and Mercedes seven times world champion Lewis Hamilton, and others were shown warning flags. A spokesman for the governing FIA said race control had to review more than 1,200 instances in the 71 lap race where a car was reported to have potentially left the track.
