BUDAPEST, Hungary (AFP) — World champion Lando Norris of McLaren narrowly outpaced Ferrari’s Lewis Hamilton on Saturday to seize his first pole position of the year for this weekend’s Hungarian Grand Prix before he and championship leader Kimi Antonelli were handed penalties.
Norris clocked a best lap of 1:17.207 minutes to wreck Hamilton’s bid for pole by just 0.012 seconds with Charles Leclerc qualifying third in the second Ferrari before the grid for Sunday’s race in Budapest was rearranged by the race commissioners.
World championship leader Kimi Antonelli of Mercedes was originally fourth, 0.260 seconds adrift, ahead of Oscar Piastri in the second McLaren and four-time champion Max Verstappen of Red Bull.
