Time for the Hungarian Grand Prix!

Here we go then – it’s round 14 of the 2025 season!

Charles Leclerc is a surprise pole-sitter but it’s a long run down to turn one at the Hungaroring, with Oscar Piastri in second and Lando Norris in third!

But with the likes of Max Verstappen down in 8th and Lewis Hamilton in 12th, it should be a fascinating race down the order too!

Oscar Piastri, who starts P2:

“It should be a good day for us today, we’ll see what we can do.

“If I can get the lead at turn one, that’d make my life significantly easier, but if not, strategy.”

“Lewis is a jewel, no matter this difficult moment he will react…”

George Russell, who starts in fourth:

“The start is also important but race-pace tends to favour the winner, it’s difficult to overtake, a lot of work in strategy.

How Lewis Hamilton is trying to revive Ferrari

Asked whether he’d been at the Maranello factory in the last few weeks, Hamilton replied that he had. A “couple of days each week”, he detailed. Then, untriggered, the British driver, often so reluctant to reveal the inner workings of his mind, went into full disclosure mode.
