Charles Leclerc edges out McLarens to claim pole position in Hungary
Ferrari's Charles Leclerc took a surprise pole position for the Hungarian Grand Prix – as team-mate Lewis Hamilton could manage only 12th. Championship leader Oscar Piastri and title rival Lando Norris had been expected to fight for pole but the McLaren men were left to settle for second and third respectively. Leclerc saw off Piastri by just 0.026 seconds with Norris only 0.015 sec behind the Australian. George Russell finished fourth for Mercedes. McLaren had dominated all weekend at the Hungaroring with Norris fastest in both sessions on Friday, and Piastri – who leads his team-mate by 16 points in the world championship – quickest in the concluding running prior to qualifying. But Leclerc pulled a mighty lap out of the bag to secure both his and Ferrari's first pole of the season. The Monegasque said: 'Today, I don't understand anything in Formula One. Honestly, the whole qualifying was extremely difficult. When I say extremely difficult, it's not exaggerating. 'It was difficult for us to get to Q2, it was difficult for us to get to Q3. In Q3, the conditions changed a little bit. Everything became a lot trickier, and I knew I just had to do a clean lap to target third. 'At the end of the day, it's pole position. I definitely did not expect that. Honestly, I have no words. It's probably one of the best pole positions I've ever had. It's the most unexpected, for sure.' In the other scarlet car, Hamilton has a record eight wins and nine pole positions in Hungary. However, a week after he qualified only 16th at Spa-Francorchamps, he suffered another setback when he was knocked out of Q2. Hamilton has now been outqualified by Leclerc at 10 of the 14 rounds so far. 'Every time, every time,' said the British driver after he was informed of his early exit. Hamilton emerged from his cockpit and walked towards the Ferrari motorhome holding his gloves in front of his visor to obstruct the full glare of the waiting TV cameras. Hamilton's lowly grid slot looks set to extend his run without a podium finish to 14 races. Until this season he had never gone more than 10 races into a campaign without finishing in the top three. Hamilton's replacement at Mercedes, the teenager Kimi Antonelli, has only scored once in his last seven appearances and he too failed to make it out of Q2, qualifying 15th. Aston Martin have been woefully out of sorts this year and are eighth in the constructors' standings. Both Fernando Alonso and Lance Stroll failed to make it out of Q1 at the previous round. However, Alonso – who turned 44 earlier this week – and Stroll progressed to the final phase on Saturday, and will start fifth and sixth respectively. Four-time world champion Max Verstappen qualified eighth for Red Bull. Alex Albon has enjoyed a strong season – he finished sixth last weekend – but he will line up from the back of the pack here after qualifying 20th and last. Yuki Tsunoda was also eliminated in Q1 for the fifth time this season, leaving him 16th on the grid.

Spectacular Leclerc takes surprise Hungarian Grand Prix pole
Hungarian Grand Prix Venue: Hungaroring Dates: 1-3 August Race start: 14:00 BST on Sunday Coverage: Live commentary of practice and qualifying on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra 2 with race on BBC Radio 5 Live; live text updates on BBC Sport website and app Ferrari's Charles Leclerc took a sensational, surprise pole position at the Hungarian Grand Prix ahead of McLaren's title contenders Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris. Leclerc, nowhere near the McLaren's pace until the final part of qualifying, pipped Piastri by just 0.026 seconds. Norris, 16 points adrift in the championship, was 0.015secs behind his team-mate. Mercedes' George Russell was fourth, ahead of a superb performance from the two Aston Martins, with Fernando Alonso and Lance Stroll locking out the third row. Leclerc's team-mate Lewis Hamilton failed to progress beyond the second knock-out session and will start 12th. Red Bull's Max Verstappen, struggling all weekend, was eighth, behind Sauber's Gabriel Bortoleto. Told he was on pole position by his engineer Bryan Bozzi, Leclerc was incredulous. "What?" he replied. "Mamma mia." Once out of the car, he said: "I have no words, it is probably one of the best pole positions I've ever had because I did not expect that. "Today I don't understand anything in F1. The whole qualifying has been extremely difficult. And when I say that, it is not an exaggeration. "It was difficult for us to get to Q2 and it was difficult to get to Q3. In Q3, the conditions changed a little bit, everything became a lot trickier and I knew I had to just do a clean lap to target third and it ended up pole position, I definitely cannot believe that." Piastri said: "The wind did a 180 from Q2 to Q3, which changed the circuit. Difficult to judge in those conditions. I was a bit surprised we couldn't go quicker than that. "Charles has been quick all weekend, and this morning (in final practice) he was closer than we expected. I wasn't expecting to be second to a Ferrari this weekend but he's done a good job." Norris added: "Charles did a good job on that last lap, probably risked a bit more in the conditions, the wind changed a lot and punished us. We thought we did a good job on the laps but we were just slow." Full results Norris' openness used against him - Sainz Andrew Benson Q&A: Send us your questions What happened to Hamilton? While Leclerc put in his outstanding performance, Hamilton had another struggle in qualifying and he was downcast afterwards, even if he was just 0.015secs shy of making it into the top 10. "I'm just useless," he said. "I drove terribly." Aston Martin locked out the back row of the grid in Belgium just a week ago, the car's high drag handicapping it on the long, high-speed sections at Spa-Francorchamps. The tight, twisty nature of the Hungaroring played much more to its strengths, and the team have also been boosted by upgrades to the car in recent races. Both drivers were just over 0.1secs off pole, by far their best performance of the season. Alonso said: "Since P1, we felt competitive and a very different layout from Spa seven days ago. We were last row of the grid and now we are fifth and sixth. "So a huge change and we need to understand why and we need to learn what is benefiting the car here, and we need to take these lessons into the next grands prix." Verstappen said: "We tried a lot as a team and unfortunately nothing really helped our balance. "It's really difficult to explain how we suddenly just had a lot of difficulties with the car. No grip in the front and rear, difficult to balance it out. It's a bit of a mystery at the moment, just the whole weekend off pace."

Ferrari's Leclerc stuns the McLarens to take pole for F1's Hungarian Grand Prix
Associated Press BUDAPEST, Hungary (AP) — Charles Leclerc snatched a surprise first pole position of the year for Ferrari at the Hungarian Grand Prix on Saturday, beating both McLarens. Leclerc punched the air in delight as he climbed out of the car after beating Oscar Piastri by 0.026 of a second and the other McLaren of Lando Norris by .041. Leclerc had consistently been the best of the rest behind the McLarens in practice but remained well off Piastri and Norris' pace. That changed in qualifying, with the help of conditions which gradually got gloomier and windier, working against the McLarens. Norris and Piastri were each about half a second slower per lap in the final part of qualifying, compared to the second segment. Still, pole came as a shock at a circuit which Leclerc had called 'by far the worst track of the season for me' on Thursday. 'What?' Leclerc exclaimed over the radio when he was told he'd qualified first. 'Honestly, I have no words. It's probably one of the best pole positions I've ever had because it's the most unexpected,' Leclerc added later. Pole position is usually a big advantage in Hungary, where overtaking is difficult, but Norris noted the chance that rain could spring some surprises for Sunday's race. 'I have no idea how it will go, but one thing for sure is that I will do absolutely everything in order to keep that first place,' said Leclerc, who's on pole for the 27th time in F1 but doesn't have the best record converting those starts into wins. He'll be seeking his ninth F1 victory Sunday. It was a stark contrast with yet another frustrating day for Lewis Hamilton in the other Ferrari. Hamilton has won the Hungarian Grand Prix a record eight times but qualified 12th as the seven-time champion's troubles in his first season with Ferrari continued. 'Every time, every time,' Hamilton told the team over the radio after he qualified outside the top 10 for the second straight race. That came after Ferrari's executive chairman John Elkann called it 'a rough season' in comments Saturday on the F1 website, and defended Ferrari's trust in team principal Fred Vasseur, whose contract extension was announced Thursday. Ferrari hasn't won a Grand Prix since Carlos Sainz, Jr.'s victory in Mexico in October, when the Spanish driver — now at Williams — also had the Italian team's last pole. Defending champion Max Verstappen was only eighth after struggling with the balance of his Red Bull, and his teammate Yuki Tsunoda was 16th. That piles more pressure on the Japanese driver, who hasn't scored a point in six races. ___ AP auto racing: recommended Item 1 of 3
