Overview

• Lando Norris executed a bold one-stop tyre strategy to hold off teammate Oscar Piastri by 0.6 seconds and claim victory at the Hungarian Grand Prix.
• Oscar Piastri’s runner-up finish cut his championship lead to nine points and marked McLaren’s fourth straight one-two result.
• George Russell inherited third place for Mercedes after overtaking pole-sitter Charles Leclerc, who slipped to fourth following a two-stop plan and a chassis issue.
• Ferrari solidified its leadership by extending Frédéric Vasseur’s contract even as Charles Leclerc’s race pace faltered and Lewis Hamilton finished 12th.
• McLaren will carry clear momentum into the nearly month-long summer break as it pursues its first drivers’ title since 2008.
