Red Bull Ring European F3: Jake Dennis denies Felix Rosenqvist win
Prema Powerteam's Jake Dennis beat team-mate Felix Rosenqvist to win the opening Formula 3 European Championship race of the weekend at the Red Bull Ring

Dennis, starting second, passed poleman Rosenqvist on the run down to Turn 1 off the start to take an early lead.
Rosenqvist shadowed Dennis throughout the race, but could not deter his team-mate, who went on to claim his fifth win of the campaign, 0.6 seconds clear of the Swede.
Championship leader Antonio Giovinazzi jumped Lance Stroll off the start to claim the final podium spot in third for Carlin.
Ferrari protege Stroll was forced to settle for fourth, ahead of George Russell and Charles Leclerc, who passed Signature racer Alexander Albon for sixth late on at Turn 3.
Gustavo Menezes was seventh for Carlin, while Sergio Sette Camera and Mikkel Jensen rounded out the top 10 for Motopark and Mucke Motorsports.
Markus Pommer, who claimed his maiden win last time out at Zandvoort, finished well outside the points in 17th after he bogged down off the start, dropping from ninth down to near the tail of the field.
Red Bull junior Callum Ilott came home 30th after an early clash with Carlin team-mate Menezes while fighting in the top 10.
