F1 qualifying results: Hungarian Grand Prix live coverage

If the first two hours of practice are any indication, McLaren looks unstoppable at the Formula 1 Hungarian Grand Prix. Lando Norris topped the timing sheets in both FP1 and FP2, with teammate Oscar Piastri on his heels in both sessions in P2.

But the beauty of this sport is that fortunes can, and often, change with one perfect lap.

We have seen this before during the 2025 F1 season. At the Japanese Grand Prix, Norris was fastest in both FP1 and FP3, but when the clock hit 0:00 and the checkered flag flew at the end of qualifying, it was Max Verstappen on pole position.

Can Verstappen, or perhaps Charles Leclerc, who was third in both FP1 and FP2, spoil the McLaren party? Speaking of spoilers, how about Isack Hadjar, who was fourth-fastest in FP1? Can he and Visa Cash App Racing Bulls deliver a shocker today? What about Aston Martin? Lance Stroll and Fernando Alonso caught George Russell’s eye after FP2, as Stroll finished fourth and Alonso finished fifth. “Aston Martin seemed to have good pace on the single lap,” noted Russell in the Mercedes post-practice report on Friday.

It is shaping up to be a fascinating day at the Hungaroring, and we’ll have it all covered here at SB Nation. Qualifying for the Hungarian Grand Prix begins at 10:00 a.m., and we’ll provide updates throughout the morning here, so please check back early and often.

Notes from FP3

9:20: The pattern largely held in FP3.

Charles Leclerc finished third behind the McLaren duo, but the names were flipped at the front. Oscar Piastri delivered a thunderous lap of 1:14.916 to set the pace. Lando Norris came close to matching Piastri’s lap, finishing 0.032 seconds off his teammates.
