Lando Norris, Max Verstappen and Carlos Sainz recorded the top three fastest times in FP2, promising a tight battle for tomorrow’s exciting qualifying session in Budapest.
As afternoon began to fall at the Hungaroring, the second practice session of the weekend was off to a busy start.
The sole hard tyre runners at the start of FP2, McLaren sent Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris out onto the Hungaroring with long-run simulations as their early focus.
Piastri’s first time of the session was a 1:20.083s, defining his run plan for the opening stint of the hour.
After dropping to the back of the pack and returning to the pit lane, the #81 emerged on the same compound to set a messy time of 1:19.614s, moving into P13.
Following the mid-session disruption, Piastri emerged on the soft compound tyre to set a 1:18.618s, eight-tenths behind his benchmark-holding teammate after riding the kerbs at Turn 4.
His heavy journey across the kerbs saw him returning to the pitlane, joined by his peers as a short-lived lull fell over the circuit.
Just as happened in FP1, Piastri was held up due to an issue with his MCL38.
Unlike the earlier session, however, the issue was sustained during his running, with the front right area of Piastri’s floor requiring extra attention from his mechanics as they worked on repairs.
He was quickly back out on track, running the hard tyre for the final 10 minutes of the session.
With his fastest overall time in FP2 being a 1:18.618s, Piastri took Friday’s chequered flag in P13, completing his practice start alongside his competitors before retreating for the evening.
Outdoing his compatriot, Daniel Ricciardo had a positive end to his Friday running.
The RB driver’s tyre selection coincided with the greater majority, seeing him start the afternoon session on the medium tyre.
Rewarded with the third fastest time on his primary push lap, Ricciardo sat four-tenths back on Sergio Perez’s temporary benchmark.
He returned to the pit lane with a 1:19.008s lap to his name, rejoining the session still on the medium tyre.
Ricciardo abandoned his first push lap, a timely return to the RB garage just moments before the lengthy Ferrari-induced Red Flag.
Punching in one soft tyre push, Ricciardo timed his lap to clear of traffic interference.
The Australian set a 1:18.371s lap, prompting him into P8, just under six-tenths back on his former McLaren teammate’s benchmark.
Ricciardo started his race simulations on the medium tyre, however, his time set on the soft compound expectedly remained his best of the session.
Subsequently, Ricciardo finished FP2 with the eighth fastest time, over 1.2 seconds ahead of his teammate.
As for the rest of the grid, the exit of Turn 11 claimed many victims across the session with the likes of Carlos Sainz kicking up dust on the opening few laps.
After the first round of medium compound times were locked in, it was Perez’s 1:18.568s that held its own ahead of the Mercedes drivers.
As Verstappen dashed to secure the second fastest time, the session was brought to a pause due to an incident at Turn 4.
Charles Leclerc was the unlucky passenger at the high-speed corner after taking too much kerb, spinning across the road and into a heavy shunt with the wall.
The driver was ok, but the SF24 and metal barriers were not so much, resulting in a Red Flag to remove the car and start the lengthy repairs.
Restarting with less than 30 minutes on the clock, Ferrari continued FP2 with just one driver circulating the increasingly gusty Hungaroring, a hit to the team’s data-gathering plan for their upgraded floor body this weekend.
The soft tyre catapulted most cars around the 4.4km circuit for a single run, with Lando Norris’ time of 1:17.788s claiming the coveted top spot ahead of Max Verstappen and Carlos Sainz.
The drivers returned to the pits to set up for their race simulations on the hard and medium tyres, seeing the timing sheets remain unchanged through to the chequered flag.
On their race runs, Perez held the fastest pace of a 1:23.3s on the medium compound, leading over Norris’ hard tyre pace by seven-tenths.
George Russell held the third quickest pace, a 1:24.0s, however, clearly struggled with tyre grip across the 14 corners.
Making a last-minute decision to return to the C5 compound, Norris put on a set of three-lap-old tyres for one last push lap, his choice echoed by Lewis Hamilton.
There was no improvement on his benchmark time, with the two Brits instead opting to conduct their final Friday practice starts on the red-marked tyre before withdrawing for the evening.
Norris ended the session ahead of the Red Bull and Ferrari drivers, with the trio looking to remain within the top three come the chequered flag on qualifying tomorrow.
Ahead of qualifying in Hungary, however, the drivers will have one final hour of practice which kicks off at 8:30 PM.

'description' => 'An Introduction to Formula One (F1)
Formula One, or F1, is the highest class of single-seater auto racing, governed by the Fédération Internationale de l\'Automobile (FIA) and is owned by Liberty Media. The name "Formula One" refers to the set of rules or formula that all cars and drivers must comply with.
The F1 season consists of a series of races, known as Grands Prix, held on purpose-built circuits or public roads around the world. The results of each race are combined to determine two annual championships: one for drivers and one for constructors (teams).
The history of Formula One can be traced back to the pre-war Grand Prix racing, which featured open-wheel cars with supercharged engines. The first World Championship of Drivers was organised by the FIA in 1950, following the end of World War II. The first race was held at Silverstone, England, and was won by Giuseppe Farina, driving an Alfa Romeo. The first constructors\' championship was introduced in 1958 and was won by Vanwall.
Formula One has seen many changes and innovations over the years, both in terms of technology and regulations. Some of the most notable developments include the introduction of rear-engined cars in the late 1950s, the use of aerodynamic wings in the late 1960s, the adoption of turbocharged engines in the late 1970s, the emergence of electronic driver aids in the late 1980s, the switch to V10 and then V8 engines in the 1990s and 2000s, and the introduction of hybrid power units in 2014.
Formula One has also produced some of the greatest drivers and rivalries in the history of motorsport. Some of the most famous names include Juan Manuel Fangio, Jim Clark, Jackie Stewart, Niki Lauda, Ayrton Senna, Alain Prost, Michael Schumacher, Lewis Hamilton, and Sebastian Vettel. Some of the most intense battles for the championship have been between Fangio and Stirling Moss in the 1950s, Lauda and James Hunt in the 1970s, Senna and Prost in the late 1980s, Schumacher and Mika Hakkinen in the late 1990s, and Hamilton and Vettel in the 2010s.
Formula One is widely regarded as the pinnacle of motorsport, attracting millions of fans and viewers worldwide. The sport is also a huge business, involving billions of dollars in revenue and expenditure. The teams compete for prize money, sponsorship deals, and media rights, while the drivers earn millions of dollars in salaries and endorsements. The sport is also influenced by politics, regulations, and controversies, such as doping scandals, espionage cases, safety issues, and environmental concerns.
