Jack Doohan has been promoted from seventh to third after a slew of post-race penalties have drastically altered the results of the FIA Formula 3 opener in Austria.

Dennis Hauger maintains his race victory, while Olli Caldwell and Jack Doohan complete the podium.

The majority of the penalties relate to track limits rules around Turns 9 and 10, where drivers must have at least two tyres in contact with the red-and-white kerb at all times.

Caldwell, Victor Martins, and Calan Williams were all issued with five-second penalties for track limits infringements.

Despite his penalty, the final results promote Williams to sixteenth in the running order.

Logan Sargeant, who finished in third position, has been classified in fifteenth after a ten-second penalty for track limits infringements, as were Caio Collet and Amaury Cordeel.

Matteo Nannini and Filip Ugran were issued with severe ten-second stop-go penalties for their track limits infringements, which were converted to thirty-second penalties after the race.

Alexander Smolyar was given a five-second penalty for forcing another driver off-track, while Jak Crawford fell from fifth to eighth after a five-second penalty for leaving the track and gaining an advantage.

Ayumu Iwasa, who charged through the pack to finish ninth in the provisional results has been disqualified for failing to comply with a black and orange flag.

His team were asked to retire the car mid-race to fix his faulty onboard camera, which they did not do.

Meanwhile, Clement Novalak has been given a three-spot grid penalty for his collision with Matteo Nannini while battling for the lead of the race.
