Overview

  • Franco Colapinto advanced to Q2 for the first time this season and will line up 14th for Sunday’s Hungarian Grand Prix.
  • He outqualified Alpine teammate Pierre Gasly, who was eliminated in Q1 and will start from 17th on the grid.
  • After placing 18th and 20th in FP1 and FP2, Colapinto rebounded with a 13th-place finish in FP3 to build momentum for qualifying.
  • Alpine remains last in the constructors’ standings, has halted in-season upgrades and continues to wrestle with persistent lack of grip at the tight Hungaroring layout.
  • Charles Leclerc claimed pole for Ferrari after McLaren locked out the top two spots in both FP1 and FP2, underscoring the pace gap at the front of the field.
