Hungarian Grand Prix 2022

T70 / 70

Thank you all for following us at this Hungarian Grand Prix! Now, it's time for the summer break for the F1 teams and drivers! We'll see you again at the end of August for the Belgian Grand Prix. Have a good end of the day!

T70 / 70

VICTORY FOR MAX VERSTAPPEN! 8th VICTORY THIS SEASON! Hamilton is 2nd, Russell 3rd ahead of Sainz, Pérez, Leclerc, Norris, Alonso, Ocon and Vettel!

 

The classification of the race: 

 

T69 / 70

The Alfa Romeo is clear, green flag for the last lap!

T68 / 70

Yellow flag and VSC, Valtteri Bottas is stopped at the exit of turn 11!

T66 / 70

And Vettel overtakes Lance Stroll and enters the top 10! Great race for the future F1 retiree!

T65 / 70

Teammate battles on the track: while Hamilton puts pressure on Russell, Stroll and Vettel find themselves in a duel like in France, for the point of 10th place.

T63 / 70

And it's done, Hamilton goes 3rd, overtaking Sainz! We have 2 Mercedes on the podium for the moment!

T61 / 70

Sainz is getting closer to Russell and Hamilton is getting closer to Sainz… The Ferrari driver is going to be caught in a Mercedes sandwich! The seven-time world champion seems to be the most in the rhythm.

T59 / 70

While Hamilton sets the best lap time, here is the situation with 12 laps to go: 

1) Verstappen – 2) Russell +8″5 – 3) Sainz +10″2 – 4) Hamilton +13″3 – 5) Pérez +24″3

T55 / 70

And Leclerc stops in the pits for the third time! What a disaster at Ferrari! The Monegasque puts on soft tires to go to the end but comes away far away, in 3th place! 

T54 / 70

That's it, Russell has passed Leclerc and recovered 2nd place! Leclerc is now under pressure from Sainz… and the Spaniard also passes the Monegasque!

T52 / 70

Lewis Hamilton stops in the pits and puts on soft tires! He returns to the track in 5th position. Meanwhile, Ricciardo is penalized 5 seconds for his contact with Stroll.

T50 / 70

Lance Stroll comes back on Ricciardo and passes him. The Australian is on hard tires even though he stopped 3 laps ago... a strange choice again by McLaren.

 

In front, Russell puts pressure on Leclerc.

T48 / 70

Carlos Sainz comes to the pits and puts on soft tires! He comes out in 5th place!

 

While a brief yellow flag was waved, Lance Stroll went off the track at turn 2 on contact with Ricciardo.

T45 / 70

And there you have it, Verstappen gets back in front of Leclerc! It’s really a very strange strategy on the part of the Scuderia…

T44 / 70

Verstappen made a mistake alone, while the track became more and more slippery. The Red Bull driver has already returned to Leclerc's exhausts.

T42 / 70

Verstappen passes Leclerc! The Monegasque is in difficulty with hard tires!

 

AND VERSTAPPEN GOES HEAD-TO-SPIN! The Red Bull driver lost control of his car in the penultimate corner! Leclerc returns to 3rd!

 

 

T40 / 70

Leclerc and Russell respond to Verstappen and stop! Ferrari chooses hard tires for the Monegasque! It's very risky when we see the lack of rhythm of the Alpine ! Leclerc comes out 3rd ahead of Pérez and Verstappen.

T39 / 70

And Max Verstappen stops in the pits, second stop for the Dutchman. We try the undercut at Red Bull. He comes out 6th.

T38 / 70

Sainz let go a little on Russell, and it is now Verstappen who has the DRS on the Spaniard!
