Lewis Hamilton won the Austrian Grand Prix after a dramatic last lap.

He overtook championship leader Nico Rosberg after the two cars came together and crossed the finishing line ahead of Max Verstappen and Kimi Raikkonen.

Rosberg ended up finishing fourth, seeing his championship lead cut to 11 points.

Hamilton was on the outside when he made his move as Rosberg moved across to defend, leading to collision which pushed Hamilton wide and damaged Rosberg's wing.

 

 

However, after the incident, Hamilton was booed on the podium as he collected his winner's trophy.

His former McLaren team-mate Heikki Kovaleinen was one of those, however, who felt the mistake was Rosberg's.

The race stewards also confirmed that it is Rosberg who will be investigated for his part in the collision and not Hamilton.
