What time is F1 qualifying at Hungarian GP 2025?
Championship leader Oscar Piastri won the Belgian Grand Prix last time out, with an early overtake on McLaren teammate and title rival Lando Norris sealing his sixth victory of the season. The Australian now has a 16-point lead over the Briton.
Charles Leclerc secured a podium finish for Ferrari, while Lewis Hamilton recovered from a pit-lane start to come home seventh. However, the seven-time world champion is still chasing a first podium for the Scuderia.
Red Bull's Max Verstappen won the sprint race at the first race under new team principal Laurent Mekies, while Mercedes endured a weekend to forget. Piastri won last year's race in Hungary - his first F1 victory - after a contentious team order decision instructed Norris to give up the lead.

Burnley sign midfielder Ugochukwu from Chelsea
Burnley have completed the signing of French midfielder Lesley Ugochukwu from Chelsea for a fee of more than £ 21-year-old has signed a five-year deal at Turf Sport understands the fee is similar to the £23.2m Chelsea paid to sign Ugochukwu from Rennes in 2023."It's a great feeling to sign for Burnley," said Ugochukwu."As soon as I was made aware of the club's interest in signing me, I was keen to hear more about the project. I spoke to the manager and Maxime [Esteve] – they were both so passionate about the club and the direction it's heading in. "It feels like this is the perfect move for me at this stage of my career with the ambition the club is showing."Ugochukwu was considered surplus to requirements at Stamford Bridge as Chelsea look to sell multiple players in their so-called 'bomb squad' - a group of players including England internationals Raheem Sterling and Ben Chilwell - training separately from Enzo Maresca's first spent two years at Chelsea, making 15 appearances in all competitions during his first season before joining Southampton on a season-long loan for are also in talks to sign Chelsea's 23-year-old forward Armando say the move could be worth up to £20m but the exact price has not been confirmed.

Real Betis vs Como friendly descends into chaos with ex-Premier League ace SLAPPING opponent and punches thrown
A so-called friendly between Real Betis and Como descended into chaos after players from both sides were seen throwing punches at one another. The Spanish and Italian clubs were playing their penultimate friendlies before the competitive season starts for them. 8 8 8 8 But Wednesday evening proved the two sides had certainly found their competitive edge in pre-season. Cesc Fabregas ' Serie A side won the clash 3-2, but not before trying to go 12 rounds with their rivals after a stunning brawl broke out at the end of the first half. Former West Ham star Pablo Fornals was at the centre of the brawl as he exchanged blows with Máximo Perrone. The rivals were seen squaring up to one another before they got involved in a shoving match. That was abruptly ended when Fornals appeared to PUNCH Perrone, with the Argentine then trying strike the 29-year-old. However, he was unable to do so as Betis and Como players rushed over to intervene, before many of them also ended up in grappling matches of their own while trying to diffuse the situation. There was one unfortunately funny moment in the melee as Cucho Hernandez came flying in to try and land a punch on a rival, only to punch his own team-mate, Natan, in the face instead. Fornals avoided being sent off despite landing the first blow, with the same lack of punishment also going to Hernandez following his attempted flying punch. Meanwhile, former Manchester City star Perrone was not so lucky and was sent for an early shower. In the aftermath, ex- Arsenal star Hector Bellerin tried to speak to the referee to get the situation under control. Dele Alli tipped for Rangers switch | Transfers Exposed But the Spaniard instead became more and more animated himself as he grew frustrated with the referee after he had also sent him off. The 30-year-old was guided away from the official while still protesting, before tempers between the teams flared again by the tunnel. Bellerin's red card was reversed before the end of the first half. It remains to be seen whether any retrospective punishment could be enforced. Europa Conference League runner-up Betis take on newly-promoted Elche in their La Liga opener. On the other hand, Como - who recently "banished" Dele Alli from their squad - will play Suditrol in the first round of the Coppa Italia before facing Lazio in their Serie A opener. 8 8 8

Jamie Carragher explains why Chelsea are NO CLOSER to winning the Premier League title - despite spending £250m on new players this summer and becoming world champions
has questioned Chelsea 's direction under Todd Boehly and Enzo Maresca – claiming the Blues are still no nearer to mounting a Premier League title challenge despite becoming world champions and splashing another quarter of a billion pounds on new signings. Chelsea lifted the FIFA Club World Cup in the United States earlier this summer and will return to the Champions League next season after securing a fourth-place finish in the Premier League – their best since Boehly's 2022 takeover. But Carragher is not convinced that Maresca's revamped squad is any stronger than before, suggesting the club's recruitment has lacked impact despite eight summer arrivals costing around £250million combined. 'When I look at Chelsea, I think about what you did in the Club World Cup – everyone wanted to win it,' said the former Liverpool defender, speaking on The Overlap Fan Debate. ' Real Madrid really wanted to win, PSG did, and so did Manchester City, all those that we class as the best teams. 'So I do think it's a big thing and it will help build a connection between Enzo Maresca and the supporters, which wasn't really there last season. 'I'm not sure it'll push Chelsea any closer to the title though. When Chelsea do business, over the last couple of years, it feels like a lot of players are changing without anyone really lifting the level. 'I know Cole Palmer has been amazing, but all your wingers feel the same. 'A perfect example is [Jamie] Gittens coming in and Madueke leaving – there is no elevation, and I see that with a lot of positions at Chelsea.' Carragher was referring to the £55m arrival of England Under-21 winger Gittens from Borussia Dortmund, who has effectively replaced Noni Madueke – now at Arsenal following a £52m switch. Several big-name players have left Stamford Bridge once again this summer, reflecting Chelsea's ongoing squad churn during the Boehly era, with Joao Felix, Kepa Arrizabalaga and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall also departing in deals worth more than £150m combined. Incoming players include Joao Pedro (£60m), Liam Delap (£30m), Jorrel Hato (£37m), Estevao Willian (£28m), Dário Essugo (£18.5m), and Mamadou Sarr (£12m). Both Pedro and Delap made an instant impact by scoring in the Club World Cup, before Brazilian teenager Estevao — who played against the Blues in the USA — officially joined following his 18th birthday. However, Maresca's long-term project has also seen several new arrivals head straight out on loan to BlueCo's French club Strasbourg, including Sarr and Kendry Paez. Carragher, who has previously criticised Chelsea's policy of handing out ultra-long contracts, believes the current structure could eventually backfire. Discussing Cole Palmer earlier this year, Carragher said: 'He may become like a Steven Gerrard-type figure in a team that's not quite good enough – and then it's frustrating, because you feel like you're better than everybody else. 'And when you're on those long contracts, it's difficult to get out.' Palmer, a standout performer last season, is tied to the club until 2033 – a reflection of the Boehly regime's strategy but one that Carragher remains wary of. Chelsea will kick off their 2025-26 campaign on August 17 with a London derby against Crystal Palace at Stamford Bridge.
