Lando Norris trailed Oscar Piastri by just 0.032 seconds in final practice for the Hungarian Grand Prix. Norris headed both sessions at the Hungaroring on Friday but played second fiddle to his championship rival and McLaren team-mate in the concluding running before qualifying.

Either way, it stands to reason that they should be kept at arms' length this weekend for the latest edition of the Hungarian Grand Prix should they find themselves on the famous steps once again. Norris had every right to be chuffed with himself back in 2023 having sealed back-to-back podium finishes for the first time in his career.
