F1 Results Today: Hungarian Grand Prix Free Practice 3 Times – Ricciardo leads team-mate
Saturday practice set the standard ahead of the afternoon's qualifying session
Lewis Hamilton topped the charts in the final practice session for the Hungarian Grand Prix, but it was Lando Norris who arguably looked most impressive.
Saturday morning's FP3 session finally saw a number of teams putting in a variety of runs ahead of qualifying, with Friday's running disrupted by Sergio Perez crashing, rain and tyre limits.
Norris put his McLaren fifth, less than three tenths behind Hamilton, but did so on the slower medium tyre rather than the soft.
The Red Bulls flew up the timing sheets for the first time in the weekend, showing their pace after barely completing 30 laps between them on Friday.
Max Verstappen appeared to be struggling somewhat for grip with some changing wind conditions, at one point complaining he had 'no f***ing grip'.
