Final practice for the F1 Hungarian Grand Prix saw an hour of completely uninterrupted running as teams prepared themselves and their machinery for the afternoon's qualifying.

A relatively sedate session was blown wide open when the McLarens went out for their second qualifying simulation run, beating their previous times by a second apiece and putting a huge gap between themselves and the rest of the field led by Oscar Piastri in front of Lando Norris.

The Ferraris of Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton appeared to have the second best car on the track for the hour of running, with the former the only driver able to get within half a second of the papaya pair, almost a second faster than the struggling Max Verstappen.

Isack Hadjar provided the only real moment of on-track drama, losing the back end of his car to spin at the last corner, although he was able to get the car stopped comfortably rather than bouncing over the gravel and into the loving embrace of the tyre barriers.
