Hamilton is the first man to break the 1:07 mark this weekend - 1:06.947 for the world champion.
Sebastian Vettel is very close mind.

Jenson Button is the first McLaren with a time in Q1. He's up in P5.
And here comes Nico Rosberg. Plenty of high fives in the Mercedes garage as they get their man on track in good time.

But it’s a little bit early to say it’s all about Rosberg and Hamilton!

Nico Rosberg has 12 minutes left to get his car on track and set a time that will put him through to Q2 - he'll be OK, right?

Lewis Hamilton emerges. But there are no wheels on Nico Rosberg's Mercedes' as I type. I doubt he'll be driving until they put those on - although I'm not an expert.

Well. It's less Go! Go! Go! and more No! No! No!
There's not exactly a traffic jam to get out of the garages.
But qualifying is under way.

Both Mercedes' look set to be ready for Q1.
If Lewis Hamilton avoids the same suspension issues that Nico Rosberg suffered AND his tyres don't fall apart, this could be his session.

A bit of reassurance for Nico Rosberg fans.
He has won both of the races at the Red Bull Ring, despite failing to start in pole on either occasion.
He was second on the grid last year and third the year before.
