Hungarian Grand Prix Predictions & Betting tips - Formule 1
by Devesh Jaganath |
Formula 1 visits the Hungaroring for the Hungarian Grand Prix on Sunday afternoon. Oscar Piastri leads the driver standings with 266 points, Lando Norris is second with 250 points, and Max Verstappen is in third place with 185 points. Let’s get into the race prediction.
McLaren’s Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris were handed one of their biggest shocks of the season, as Charles Leclerc beat the Papaya pair to pole position for the Hungarian Grand Prix.
The Ferrari driver clocked a stunning time of 1:15.372, edging the championship leader Piastri, who will start second, by less than a tenth of a second in Q3 on Saturday afternoon.
Joining Norris in the second row is George Russell, followed by what Aston Martin would have felt was an excellent performance from their duo of Fernando Alonso and Lance Stroll.
After finishing in the points last week, Gabriel Bortoleto delivered his career-best qualifying performance to clinch P7, ahead of Max Verstappen, who had a difficult run through practice.
Racing Bulls’ Liam Lawson and Isack Hadjar round out the top 10. Lewis Hamilton failed to advance to Q3 for a second weekend in a row and will be forced to start from P13.
Kimi Antonelli complained of a lack of grip during qualifying and will start in P15.
