McLaren F1 driver Lando Norris set a 1m16.098s lap to go fastest in third pratice, 0.044s ahead of Oscar Piastri
Lando Norris led a McLaren 1-2 in the final Hungarian Grand Prix practice session as Oscar Piastri fell just half a tenth away from his Formula 1 team-mate. Norris put together an impressive lap to wrest top spot from George Russell by almost 0.5 seconds, amid a second set of soft-tyre runs in preparation for qualifying. The Briton's lap subsequently withstood efforts from Piastri and Max Verstappen to lead the session, putting McLaren in a good place for the afternoon's session.
826s on a second run with a set of soft tyres as the Mercedes arguably looked more settled in cooler conditions, the track being 20C cooler than it was in FP1 on Friday. Norris, in the meantime, also reused his initial set of softs but could not find time on his second run. This preceded a second round of soft-tyre runs in the final 20 minutes, and Russell found almost three tenths on his previous lap to extend his advantage; Lewis Hamilton joined him in the top two, 0.
