Another sunny afternoon at the Hungaroring saw drivers and teams tune up for qualifying with their final running in FP3, which spat out another interesting set of times.

Max Verstappen had set the second fastest time in both of Friday's sessions, and was near the top of the timing board again on Saturday – but was comfortably beaten by a pair of flying McLarens.

There was no repeat of Charles Leclerc's dramatic crash from FP2, with a relatively sedate session unhampered by any virtual safety cars or red flags - although Lewis Hamilton did briefly bring out some yellow flags with a spin in the same spot as his 2025 team-mate's accident.

A number of drivers struggled under braking for the first corner, locking up and running a little wide, with the Alpine of Pierre Gasly in particular turning his tyre into a mass of flat spots.
