Lewis Hamilton expressed frustration with his Ferrari team after he dropped points in the title battle against Mercedes’ Kimi Antonelli at the Hungarian Grand Prix, while Lando Norris returned to form with the defending world champion claiming his first race victory of the season.Hamilton finished in fourth place on the track at the Hungaroring but, with a five-second penalty imposed for speeding in the pit lane, he was classified as fifth in the race won by McLaren’s Norris, with Max Verstappen second for Red Bull and Antonelli third.Hamilton had been called into the pits late on for a stop under the virtual safety car, which gave him fresh tyres but cost him track position to Verstappen and Antonelli. He could not make the places back and this was the stop from which he received the penalty. The call left him questioning the strategy decisions by his team.“It was pretty bad. Pretty frustrating,” he said. “I definitely don’t think we should have taken the stop but the call came literally just before the pit-lane entry and I didn’t have time to debate.Quick GuideF1 Hungarian GP resultsShow1 Lando Norris 🇬🇧 McLaren 1:39:56.180 – 25pts2 Max Verstappen 🇳🇱 Red Bull +15.080 – 18pts3 Kimi Antonelli 🇮🇹 Mercedes +18.728 – 15pts4 Charles Leclerc 🇲🇨 Ferrari +23.840 – 12pts5 Lewis Hamilton 🇬🇧 Ferrari +24.540 – 10pts6 Isack Hadjar 🇫🇷 Red Bull +55.488 – 8pts7 George Russell 🇬🇧 Mercedes +57.503 – 6pts8 Liam Lawson 🇳🇿 Racing Bulls +1 lap – 4pts9 Nico Hülkenberg 🇩🇪 Audi +1 lap – 2pts10 Arvid Lindblad 🇬🇧 Racing Bulls +1 lap – 1pt11 Gabriel Bortoleto 🇧🇷 Audi +1 lap12 Pierre Gasly 🇫🇷 Alpine +1 lap 13 Lance Stroll 🇨🇦 Aston Martin +1 lap14 Fernando Alonso 🇪🇸 Aston Martin +1 lap15 Franco Colapinto 🇦🇷 Alpine +2 laps16 Esteban Ocon 🇫🇷 Haas +2 laps17 Alexander Albon 🇹🇭 Williams +2 laps18 Carlos Sainz 🇪🇸 Williams +2 laps19 Oliver Bearman 🇬🇧 Haas +2 lapsNC Oscar Piastri 🇦🇺 McLaren DNFNC Sergio Pérez 🇲🇽 Cadillac DNFNC Valtteri Bottas 🇫🇮 Cadillac DNF“I would never have stopped if it meant I was giving up track position. I may have been able to hold on to P2. He [Verstappen] was catching me but most likely it would have been P3 [in front of Antonelli] and it would have been much better. Instead, I lost a bunch of points.”Hamilton had been 45 points behind Antonelli but now trails the Italian by 50 points as Formula One enters its summer break. The Briton has also been on the receiving end of a swathe of penalties in recent races, including one at Silverstone, one at Spa, a three-place grid drop in Hungary for impeding in qualifying and then pit-lane speeding during the race. He feels that the annual shutdown has come at the right moment.“I’ll work hard to try and come back, reset,” Hamilton said. “There’s still a lot of places to take. I’m going to try and make sure I don’t give them any reason to give any penalties moving forwards.“It has been an amazing first half given I think we’ve been probably three or four-tenths down on the straights in pace and power for the first half of the season. We’ve got a bit more to come in the second half and we keep on pushing. The second half will be stronger, usually the second half is a stronger period for me. So I’ll really take this time to reset and try and come back stronger, fitter and better mentally prepared.”Norris, who took his and McLaren’s first win of the year, believes that he is driving at his very best, better even than when he won the title last season, despite being outpaced by what has been a dominant Mercedes over the opening 11 meetings.“Today I would probably say it was up there with one of my best performances, in terms of extracting performance out of the car and being so close to the limit every single lap,” he said. “So close that the team had to ask me to peg it back a little bit.“So although it kind of hurts me saying it because it doesn’t mean that you just win, I feel I’m doing a better job this year than I was last year, and I have done for a little while.”Lando Norris celebrates with the McLaren team after his Hungarian Grand Prix success.

It is a huge mountain to climb but, like Hamilton, Norris said there is still much to play for in the second half of the season, especially after the significant upgrades McLaren brought to Hungary had proved so effective, even if driving the current F1 cars is still not to his and many drivers’ taste.“What pleases me the most? The fact we were so quick, the fact the car was very strong today,” he said. “I was just very happy with a lot of things. I mean, the car was still horrible to drive at times but quick and I’d rather have a horrible but quick car than anything else.“I was convinced I could win the race today and we did. We were just on another level and I felt in a very good flow of things. When the car’s good and when I’m in a good flow, there’s no stopping.”
