Overview[]
The S3 - Austrian Grand Prix was the fourth race of Masters Season 3.
Report[]
The Austrian GP moved to an earlier slot in calendar compared to its mid-season date of last season. Nigel Mansell was hoping to repeat his success from his championship winning season, but he suffered a retirement. Instead, Alain Prost bounced back from his disappointment at Imola to take his first win of the season ahead of Michael Schumacher and Mika Hakkinen.
