Verstappen was so far ahead of his opponents that he even stopped in the box for new tires as his team didn’t recommend him to do it, but despite that, Max did it and won an extra point for the fastest lap in the race.

Verstappen secured it with his last lap at the Austrian Grand Pix, finishing with a 5-second lead ahead of Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc.
