F1 Grand Prix of Austria
It was a whoopsie weekend for Hulkenberg

Carlos Sainz Jnr - 12th

Ad

The first part of the weekend was looking good for Renault as both Carlos Sainz Jr and Nico Hulkenberg had reached Q3 and would start the race in 9th and 10th position.

But then the second part on Sunday arrived and it would prove to be a downfall for the French team.

Sainz dropped down three places and struggled to compete with Pierre Gasly up ahead.

Rating: 4/10

Nico Hulkenberg - DNF

Ad

Nico Hulkenberg suffered his third retirement of the season after an engine blow on lap 11.

It would be the start of a disastrous weekend for Renault as they were looking to stretch their gap in fourth spot in the constructors' championship.

And with Force India, Haas and McLaren getting points on Sunday, the bosses at Renault will feel a little frustrated.

Renault are currently 13 points ahead of Haas going into this weekend's British Grand Prix.

Rating: 1/10
