Verstappen on the mic: These drivers will be at the FIA press conference

At Red Bull's home Grand Prix this weekend, Max Verstappen will be present at the FIA press conference.

On Thursday, Max Verstappen will be at the FIA press conference, where he will answer questions on the media day of the weekend.

The defending world champion finished in P2 the previous weekend, and is now set to compete at the track where he is the most successful driver, having for four Austrian and a single Styrian Grands Prix.

Verstappen will be joined by two French drivers: his former teammate Pierre Gasly, and Racing Bulls driver Isack Hadjar.

During the second session, the third Frenchman, Esteban Ocon will also appear at the FIA's press conference. He will be joined by rookie Gabriel Bortoleto and Oscar Piastri. The Australian finished P4 last weekend, after he also collided with Lando Norris.

The attention then turns to the team representative's press conference on Friday, where three team principals will be present. Toto Wolff, Jonathan Wheatley and Laurent Mekies will answer the media's questions.

Unlike the previous three seasons, there will be no Sprint this weekend in Austria. Therefore, the regular press conferences will also take place after qualifying and Sunday's Grand Prix at the Red Bull Ring.
