(CNN) — Lando Norris held off multiple challenges from his McLaren teammate Oscar Piastri to win a thrilling Austrian Grand Prix on Sunday afternoon.

His victory came after a chaotic start during which Carlos Sainz’s brakes caught fire before the race even began, forcing him to retire.

The drama continued into the first lap when Andrea Kimi Antonelli collided with Max Verstappen, ending both drivers’ races.
