Spielberg, July 5

Valtteri Bottas won an action-packed Austrian Grand Prix for champions Mercedes today as Formula One started its delayed season with plenty of drama, if no spectators, in a race with only 11 finishers. Charles Leclerc finished a surprise second with Lando Norris celebrating a first podium after a time penalty dropped six-time world champion Lewis Hamilton to fourth.

“I managed to keep it together,” said Bottas, who had to keep his cool through three safety car periods.

Norris, at 20 the youngest driver in the race and now the youngest Briton to stand on an F1 podium, also set the fastest lap.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
