The Ferrari driver will be looking to claim his first victory of the 2025 F1 season, while Piastri will be searching for win number seven and the chance to extend his championship lead over Norris.
F1 starting grid for today's Hungarian Grand Prix
Leclerc, Piastri and Norris were the three fastest drivers after qualifying, followed by Britain's George Russell (Mercedes), who will start from fourth on the grid in the Hungarian Grand Prix.
Aston Martin's Fernando Alonso and Lance Stroll qualified in fifth and sixth place, a major turnaround from 19th and 20th a week earlier in Belgium.
Lewis Hamilton (Ferrari) will start from 12th on the grid in today's race, while fellow Brits Ollie Bearman (Haas) and Alexander Albon (Williams) will begin in 11th and 20th, respectively.
After qualifying, Hamilton came out and said he is 'absolutely useless' and claimed Ferrari needs to replace him.
The 40-year-old said: "I'm useless, absolutely useless. The team have no problem. You've seen the car's on pole. So we probably need to change driver.'

Update: Date: 88 mins Title: Post Content: Arsenal 2-3 Villarreal Jurrien Timber's cross is headed out to Declan Rice but he can't get a shot in. Moments later Martin Odegaard does but it flies wide.

Another cross from the 15-year-old goes in. Update: Date: 19:44 BST Title: Post Content: Arsenal 2-3 Villarreal Obviously you don't see many 15-year-old footballers full stop.

Update: Date: 85 mins Title: Post Content: Arsenal 2-3 Villarreal Another great run by Arsenal winger Max Dowman down the right but his cross is cleared. Then he almost beats his man in the box but is denied by a good sliding tackle. I can't remember ever seeing a better 15-year-old footballer. Update: Date: 84 mins Title: Post Content: Arsenal 2-3 Villarreal Villarreal make a few more subs. Only one of their squad hasn't played today (yet). Poor Ruben Gomez.

Mercedes happy to secure Russell's future after Verstappen talks
Verstappen confirmed for the first time that he would stay with Red Bull ahead of last weekend's Hungarian Grand Prix, putting to an end speculation that he could make a sensational move to rivals Mercedes ahead of the 2026 season. Mercedes and Wolff have made little secret of their desire to sign the four-time world champion, which heightened talk that Russell – who is out of contract at the end of this season – could lose his seat. Team principal Wolff admitted that the possible availability of Verstappen, 27, had to be explored. 'I've always said I'm happy with my team, with Russell and Kimi Antonelli, but suddenly Max's future became uncertain, so we talked to him too,' Wolff told Gazzetta dello Sport. 'But I've always been very clear with George: 90 per cent of the time he would stay with us, but I needed to talk to Verstappen too. Now the situation is clear, and everything can go back to normal.' Verstappen had a break clause from his Red Bull deal which can no longer be activated. Confirmation that he would stay with the team came 23 days after Christian Horner discovered he had been ousted as Red Bull team principal and CEO. "I'm useless, absolutely useless" 😔 A devastated Lewis Hamilton after his Q2 exit in Hungary 🎙️ — Sky Sports F1 (@SkySportsF1) August 2, 2025 Russell claimed his sixth podium of the season at the Hungaroring and has excelled in an inconsistent Mercedes car, while also stepping up to lead the team alongside 18-year-old Italian rookie Antonelli following Lewis Hamilton's move to Ferrari. Hamilton, who won six of his seven world championships under Wolff at Mercedes, endured another difficult weekend for the Scuderia and labelled himself 'useless' after qualifying. The downbeat 40-year-old said Ferrari should change their driver but Wolff is convinced he will bounce back from his first-season struggles with the Prancing Horse. 'It's a characteristic of the greats: if they know they haven't been up to par, they don't blame the team but look within. Once this moment has passed, he'll come back with the same motivation as always,' Wolff said. Formula One will have a new set of regulations for next season, with major changes to power unit and aerodynamic rules that will bring an end to the ground-effect era in which Mercedes have struggled to match Red Bull and, this season, McLaren. Wolff is optimistic that his team will be stronger next season and admitted he would relish the chance to go head-to-head in a title battle with Hamilton and Ferrari. 'Seeing Ferrari against Mercedes would be fantastic,' Wolff added. 'I have no doubt this duel will happen, next year or in the future. We will experience it and it will be fantastic.'
