Norris starred once again at the Red Bull Ring, securing third💙 on the grid behind the two Red 𒁏Bulls.

The McLar𝓰en driver remained in third before dropping 🌳down the order to 10th on Lap 1.

Originally, it seemed Norris was caught out by 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Sergio Perez’s intense duel for the lead of the ra♈ce, with theꦚir battle allowing Nico Hulkenberg to move up to second.

Speaking to Sky Sports after qualifying, Norris explained how his carꦚ went into anti-stall and ‘cost him everything’.

“I just got a bit sideways and just went into ꧑anti-stall and I was revving in Turn 3,” he said. “So that cost me every🍰thing. I don't know why it happened.

“My🦩 Turn 3 was OK, I think. It was obviously quite close, but I just went into anti-stall, so I lost everything.

“I was basically in neutral [revving], watc🤡hing ♈everyone drive past.”

Norris eventually finished ♒in ninth, but had been on course for a top eight finish - and points - before the closing laps.

He was overtaken by Hulkenberg and Georg♛e Russell, who opted to switch to the slicks.

Reflecting 𓆉on the choice to stay out on intermediates, he said: “It was a tough decision.🤡 The guys [who pitted] only managed just to get back through on the last lap so it was tough. It's such a difficult one to know.

“You can look like heroes. Either way, it's nꦚot like a 'yes' or 'no' answer. I'm happy with our decision of staying out.

“If tꦚhere's a safety car, if there's something, then the other guys look like idiots. This way, we look like idiots.

“It goes and c🤪omes your way sometimes. We lost two positions in the last couple of laps, but we already lo🍬st it really at Turn 3 on lap one.”
