Red Bull’s reigning champion Verstappen pulled out another 17 points over Ferrari drivers’ title rival Charles Leclerc, who led in Hungary before a poor strategy decision dropped him back to finish sixth.

Verstappen’s lead is now 80 points over Leclerc as he bids for a second successive drivers’ title. His Red Bull teammate Sergio Perez’s fifth position in Hungary moves him to within five points of Leclerc’s second spot in the points.

George Russell’s podium finish moves him two points ahead of Carlos Sainz in the second Ferrari into fourth in points.

Seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton’s runner-up finish puts him with 10 of Sainz in sixth.
