Getting ready to swap the Styrian mountains for the British countryside 🇬🇧 https://t.co/xrNZ9IyHuo

What happened: Ferrari is closing out its Austrian Grand Prix weekend at the Red Bull Ring and turning its attention to the next round, the British Grand Prix. The team frames the move as trading the Styrian mountains for the British countryside as the F1 calendar rolls on through a busy stretch.

Why it matters: The British Grand Prix is one of the season's marquee rounds, and Ferrari arrives looking to build on its Austrian weekend. After George Russell won at the Red Bull Ring, Ferrari left Austria with Lewis Hamilton in fifth and Charles Leclerc in eighth, leaving room to recover ground at a track where every point matters in the 2026 fight.

By the numbers: Austrian Grand Prix result: George Russell won ahead of Max Verstappen and Kimi Antonelli. Ferrari's drivers finished P5 (Hamilton) and P8 (Leclerc) after starting P3 and P2 respectively on the grid.

What to watch: Watch how Ferrari's pace translates to Silverstone and whether the team can convert qualifying position into a stronger result in Britain.
