Norris cautious despite pole as it 'falls apart' for Hamilton

Lando Norris claimed his first pole position of the 2026 season at the Hungarian Grand Prix on July 25, 2026, but remains cautious about converting it into his first victory as world champion, referencing a strategic error in Miami that cost him a win earlier in the season. Lewis Hamilton, who was set to share an all-British front row with Norris, received a grid penalty that dropped him from his qualifying position. Aston Martin's major car upgrade at the Hungaroring also drew significant attention, allowing Fernando Alonso to advance past the first qualifying session for the first time all season.
