Results are in for Hungary

Date published: 21st July 2024

Sunday in Budapest was always going to struggle to mimic the drama of Silverstone, especially when the rain chose to stay away. However, it was a drama-filled in other ways, no more than on the respective team radios!

Piastri taking his fabulous first win, joining the likes of former world champions, among them Jenson Button and Damon Hill, in recording their debut appearance on the top step in Hungary. However, he was made to sweat by Norris, who was reluctant to give up his position following an earlier pitstop than his Aussie teammate, leaving his team to air their dirty laundry in public, lap after lap.

Elsewhere, a tetchy Verstappen gave out plenty on the team radio, while we had to listen to Crofty mention sim racing a dozen times. I’d rather be the Red Bull engineer, I think! Hamilton’s aggressive defence would have only added to the Dutchman’s frustration, as he locked tyres and caused a collision, leaving him in 5th (and subject to a potential post race penalty).

In Fantasy GP terms we had the podium of Piastri, Norris and Hamilton, with Norris taking Pole Position on Saturday. Russell secured the fastest lap. We had no safety car periods and, for the bonus question, the correct answer was C (15th or worse), with Bottas finishing a disappointing 16th.

Full results are below and, as a special treat, an insight into what you get (stats wise!) if you Go Pro. We’ll see you in a week for the beautiful Spa GP in Belgium, the last race before the summer break.
