Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris in front of the Hungarian flag

Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri teed up a seismic showdown at the final race before F1's summer break.

A quiet final practice session was rocked when the pair took to the track for their qualifying simulation runs, with only one other driver getting within three quarters of a second of their times.

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.
