Lando Norris praised for "true world champion's" drive at F1 Hungarian GP

Lando Norris claimed a dominant victory at the 2026 F1 Hungarian Grand Prix at the Hungaroring, securing pole position by just 0.012 seconds over Ferrari's Lewis Hamilton. Former F1 driver David Coulthard praised Norris on the Up To Speed podcast, calling it a 'true world champion performance.' The win marked the first grand prix victory of the 2026 season for both Norris and McLaren, coming after early-season struggles with reliability and a performance deficit to Mercedes and Ferrari.
