Formula One world championship leader Nico Rosberg will be looking to continue his fine form at the 2016 Austrian Grand Prix, hoping to make it three straight wins at the Red Bull Ring in Spielberg.

Team-mate Lewis Hamilton closed the gap at the top of the standings with wins in Monaco and Canada, but Rosberg halted his streak in Baku and remains the clear favourite to win this year's title.

Race Time: 1 p.m. BST/8 a.m. ET

TV: Sky Sports F1 and HD, Channel 4 and HD, NBC

Live Stream: Sky Go, ALL 4, NBC Sports Live Extra

The Ferrari of the former world champion bothered him even more in practice, as he spun out on Friday. Per Autosport's Ian Parks and Mitchell Adam, Vettel explained what happened:
