Race Recap

Norris made pole count at the Hungarian Grand Prix, delivering a commanding win for McLaren. An 88 OVR performance grade confirms a dominant weekend. Verstappen finished second for Red Bull, with Antonelli completing the podium.

The Decisive Factor

The tire war went to Antonelli, who earned a 91 TIR tire management grade by extending stint performance beyond the field average. That stint advantage helped convert a P7 start into P3.

Championship Impact

Antonelli commands a 100% title probability heading into the next round. Antonelli leads Russell by 102 points in the standings.

Survival Race

3 DNFs made this one of the more dramatic races of the season. Among the casualties: Piastri (P3).
