Description

The 2016 Austrian Grand Prix (formally known as the Formula 1 Großer Preis von Österreich 2016) was a Formula One motor race that was held on 3 July 2016 at the Red Bull Ring in Spielberg, Austria. The race, which was contested over seventy-one laps, was the ninth round of the 2016 season, and marks the thirtieth running of the Austrian Grand Prix as a round of the Formula One World Championship since the series inception in 1950.

Mercedes driver Nico Rosberg entered the round as the defending race winner and championship leader, with a twenty-four point advantage over team-mate Lewis Hamilton. Hamilton started the race from pole and went on to win the race after colliding with Rosberg on the final lap; as a result, Rosberg finished fourth behind Max Verstappen and Kimi Räikkönen, and saw his championship lead cut to eleven points. Mercedes led rivals Ferrari by eighty-one points in the Constructors' standings at the start of the round, extending their lead to one hundred and three after Sebastian Vettel retired.
