With the Styrian GP now in the books, let us look back at the major talking points from the first of two Formula 1 races in Spielberg.
Hamilton had warned that unless his team provided more upgrades to the car, more losses would follow inevitably.
Alonso led the way for Alpine at the Styrian Grand Prix, qualifying P8 before finishing ninth at the flag for his third straight points finish.
Red Bull Racing chief Christian Horner seems suspicious of Mercedes boss Toto Wolff's claim that they won't upgrade their car anymore.
Lewis Hamilton might have finished second in the Styrian Grand Prix but was a good distance behind race winner Max Verstappen.
Max Verstappen became the first driver to set a sub-64-second lap in what was an awe-inspiring performance by the Red Bull driver.
The British GP took place in 2020, but like other events it was a behind closed doors affair. However, it will feature a full capacity crowd in 2021.
In Max Verstappen and Red Bull, Lewis Hamilton has a title challenger who has both the car and the speed to match - and even beat - him.
With the victory, Verstappen extends his lead at the top of the table. Red Bull also sits atop the constructor's championship table.
Hamilton did not have a disappointing race by any stretch as he will be near the top of the grid in the main race.
