McLaren-Mercedes' Lando Norris heads the times after Friday practice in Hungary, the Englishman looking strong on both light fuel and heavy. Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez were both quick for Red Bull-Honda, as was Carlos Sainz for Ferrari - and Mercedes are up there too, with George Russell and Lewis Hamilton. For Ferrari's Charles Leclerc, though, Friday was foreshortened by a high speed spin at Turn 4. Peter Windsor in this video looks back at the day's key elements - and compares in detail the first sector speeds of Lando and Max.
Please note that Lewis Hamilton used soft tyres for his fuel run (and not the medium Pirellis mentioned in this video.)
