F1 Practice Today: Hungarian Grand Prix 2023 start times, schedule and TV channel

F1 practice gets underway at the Hungarian Grand Prix following the first two chaotic sessions of the weekend as Max Verstappen and Red Bull look to keep their remarkable run of victories going.

The Milton Keynes-based constructor has won every race this season, while Verstappen has won eight out of 10 grands prix so far this season.

The two-time world champion will be favourite once again as we return to Hungary for one of the slower circuits of the F1 season, the challenging Hungaroring – full of slower speed corners where the drivers are tested in a vastly different way to the high-speed flowing nature of Silverstone last time out.

Today we see the final practice session of the weekend followed by qualifying – as the teams look to find the optimal balance for their cars after Friday's disrupted running.
