00:00It's lights out and away we go, Lando gets a really good start, Hadjar gets a better start than Russell,
00:05here comes Oscar Piastri too, and Charles Leclerc has already been passed by the McLaren, into the first corner we
00:11go, side by side, Lando Norris ahead of Oscar Piastri, Hamilton on the outside of Leclerc, Verstappen might squeeze through
00:17and does, into third place, Hamilton battling away now with Leclerc, who's dropping back through the field, as we get
00:23into Hamilton corner, it's Lando Norris going way, way wide, as Oscar Piastri takes the lead of the
00:29Hungarian Grand Prix, Hamilton is ahead of Leclerc, and now we head up to Mansell corner turn four, and just
00:35ahead there of Isaac Hadjar, what happened there, says George Russell, and the car went into anti-stall, which is
00:43why he got bogged down on the grid, this has been another race to forget for George Russell and we're
00:49only on lap two of it.
00:51So has Max Verstappen, that is the start of George Russell's problems, you can see him getting swallowed up by
00:57the field there, Lando Norris gets away really well, Piastri's coming at him, and behind it's three abreast, going into
01:03turn one.
01:05Yeah, some close racing there, Ocon goes wide on the exit, and it's Haas in the turn one, Ferrari side
01:12by side, so eager to use those soft tyres to get past Max Verstappen, there's Lando Norris, getting wayward on
01:19the outside of turn two, just got a bit hot on the brake.
01:22Ah, there's George's anti-stall, they have to pull the clutch in, and start again, now you're completely out of
01:30sync, with the speed of all of those around you, and he's done what you always have to do.
01:34The dumping failed for sure, the car's completed.
01:38How's the tyres, how's the bike?
01:4030, yeah, ready.
01:42Much faster, yeah, just 30, yeah.
01:45Please do something about this shift, and don't tell me it's the existing later.
01:49That's it.
01:49It's happened to Alex Albon, as he approaches turn four.
01:55Whoa!
01:55And he won't want to approach it like that very often.
01:58Into the pit lane, and it's going to be for Lewis Hamilton, so, trigger has been pulled, in terms of
02:05the pit stops, and this is Ferrari trying the undercut now.
02:09He'll come out in front of George Russell, if everything goes according to plan, and hope that he still gets
02:15out ahead of Max Verstappen, with Verstappen pits.
02:17Ted Kravitz.
02:18Nice stop, none of the problems of the last week, and absolutely spot on, set for the two stops, spot
02:25on lap 13.
02:26It's the hard tyre, but Lewis will light them right up, and let's see if Red Bull respond.
02:31Drivers on hammer time, has Verstappen been able to drive to the max to thwart the undercut attempt from Ferrari?
02:40Verstappen is in and out very swiftly.
02:42Two and a half seconds, he is now trundling at 80 kilometers an hour down the pit lane.
02:47Here comes Hamilton, round the final corner.
02:49We can see him now, as he gets ever, ever closer to Max Verstappen.
02:53Has he gotten the jump on Max Verstappen?
02:56You bet he has.
02:57In the turn.
02:58Oh, Valtteri Bottas is coming into the pits.
03:01Piastri's coming into the pits, too.
03:03And if they're coming into the pits at the same time, that is not going to be good news for
03:07Piastri.
03:08McLaren, if he's anywhere near Bottas, yeah, they're going to keep him out for another lap.
03:14That doesn't surprise me at all, because their brakes are on fire on the Cadillac.
03:18The last thing you want is to be encountering that as you're trying to make your pit stop.
03:22Max Verstappen behind Liam Lawson.
03:25Hamilton have gone ahead of Lawson.
03:27Verstappen goes late on the brakes into turn one.
03:30They avoid contact.
03:31Verstappen's got the overtake, though, on Hamilton.
03:34You can hear the crowd and how much they love that.
03:38That was quite special.
03:39I don't want to complain, but that was again moving on the braking.
03:43I mean, it's nice action, but it's not right.
03:45We know overtaking is tricky here.
03:47Maybe they thought, actually, it's a little bit harder this year.
03:50Oh, that's wide again for Norris, then, in the run-off area of turn four.
03:54And that's dirt on tyres.
03:55Three or four corners to get that back together again.
03:59Leclerc have also been into the pits for a second time.
04:02The only other driver to make a second pit stop is Esteban Ocon.
04:05And we are on board now with Charles Leclerc.
04:08Should be an easy overtake down the main straights, over the bump plan,
04:12into a track that looks far from perfect,
04:15but isn't breaking up as much as some have feared.
04:18Charles Leclerc moves past and up into six.
04:20Let's just have a little...
04:21Oscar's lost so much time.
04:22Yeah, let's just have a little look here,
04:24because we've got a replay and we're on board
04:26with Oscar Piastri going through turn two.
04:29Sainz is trying to go around the outside of the Aston Martin.
04:31That didn't work, and yes, there was contact, Martin.
04:34Wow, he so nearly went on.
04:36Well held, Oscar.
04:37That might just have cost him the Grand Prix.
04:39Get out of the way it is.
04:42Oh, my God.
04:46Lando Norris makes his way down the pit lane.
04:50We're looking to the final corner.
04:52Where's Oscar Piastri?
04:53There's Oscar Piastri.
04:54He's powering his way at about 180 miles an hour down the straight.
04:58It's not going to be very tight at all.
05:00Into turn one,
05:02and Lando Norris has the net lead of this Grand Prix.
05:06On board now with the Haas of Oli Behrmann.
05:09That is Carlos Sainz ahead of him,
05:11and that is the sliding feeling
05:13of no grip whatsoever for Oli Behrmann.
05:18Completely losing it through the corner.
05:20But Fernando Alonso, we can ride on board with him next.
05:24Oh, and there's that contact with Lewis Hamilton.
05:27Yeah, but Fernando was keeping it out of the way, wasn't he?
05:30There must be that science that's cost us that.
05:32Target is to get to the end on this tyre.
05:34Oh, mate.
05:35It's better you don't f***ing all to me now.
05:38I've said you guys to affect the other one.
05:40It's always like, stop.
05:42And he's not.
05:43Antonelli's used to have it.
05:44Here he goes, Martin.
05:45There he goes.
05:46Late braking.
05:46Big lunge.
05:47Nicely done.
05:48Will he keep it?
05:49Will he keep it?
05:49Switch back.
05:50From Kimi Antonelli.
05:52Means they have to go side by side.
05:53Down towards turn two.
05:55Antonelli just ahead.
05:56Under braking.
05:57Norris has that extra grip to leave it a little bit later.
06:01And takes the lead of the race.
06:03You'd like to be able to follow those.
06:05Something that feels f***ing wrong with the car.
06:08Copy.
06:09Looks like overheating.
06:10You can get back into the rhythm.
06:11Should help.
06:12Quick rhythm.
06:14Hang on.
06:15So through turn four.
06:17Curves are pretty aggressive there.
06:19And he went over it.
06:21And straight away.
06:22Oh, your left front look.
06:23Yes.
06:25So that looks like a track rod, doesn't it?
06:27We go on to the end.
06:28We don't think we have a tyre life.
06:29So press and hold boost.
06:31Press and hold boost.
06:32Look, as it stands, he's doing really, really well.
06:35But if they are predicting the tyres are going to drop off the cliff, it can get worse from
06:40here on in.
06:42So currently P6 potential for P2 here, Kimi.
06:45We've got a big offset on tyres.
06:47For sure, but they were racing right at the start.
06:49Oh, is there a problem for Oscar Piastri?
06:52It looks like there is.
06:55Because already Hamilton and Verstappen have gone past him.
06:58And a race that had so much potential is ending in a DNF for Oscar Piastri.
07:05The gearbox.
07:06Oh, this is just horrible for him.
07:09Listen.
07:10In the turn one, he's got a bit deep.
07:19Now, do you remember when he came out of the pits, Martin?
07:22And his head was jumping in the cockpit.
07:25We could see a cheap pit stop here for Lando Norris.
07:29He's got the time in hand over Lewis Hamilton to make a stop and go to the end of the
07:34race.
07:35Quite a lot, doesn't it?
07:36Because this is the battle between the championship leader and his nearest rival.
07:41And the reason Hamilton could go faster is because until that line across the track,
07:47he was under, he wasn't under the virtual safety car conditions.
07:52I think I was ahead.
07:53Yeah, we're just talking it through.
07:54I think we were.
07:55So was he ahead at the line?
07:58Or did Hamilton get to the line first so he could stay ahead?
08:03Has Hamilton got a problem?
08:05Yeah, he's gone slowly.
08:06He's given the position back.
08:07So Ferrari pre-empted any penalty.
08:10Stappen is currently in second place.
08:13Let's look at that slide again.
08:15That went wrong on the way in for Lewis.
08:17It carried a lot of speed into the corner.
08:20Confirmation that Lewis Hamilton has got a five-second time penalty for speeding in the pit lane.
08:28Five-second penalty for speeding into the pit lane.
08:32He handed out penalties like crazy.
09:03He did it here in 2025.
09:0423, back-to-back podiums for the first time for him this season.
09:09Kimi Antonelli holds on to the podium spots ahead of Lewis Hamilton,
09:14whose five-second penalty takes him behind Charles Leclerc.
09:19What up, mate?
09:21Right on.
09:22Woo!
09:24Beautiful!
09:26Car was unbelievable today.
09:28Oh, no, guys.
09:30Incredible.
09:32Flying.
09:32Thank you so much for the car.
09:34Nice to finally be able to do it all for you again.
09:37Feels like it's been a while.
09:38So, congrats.
09:40Very well-deserved.
09:41Hardware pays off.
09:42Just keep it going.
09:43Thank you very much.
09:44I love you all.
09:45Thank you very much.
