Oscar Piastri claimed the maiden Formula 1 Grand Prix victory of his career at the 2024 Hungarian Grand Prix – but there was plenty of controversy en route for the McLaren team.
Piastri had enjoyed a superb launch off the line to jump his pole-sitting team mate Lando Norris and run P1 in the opening part of the race.
But a decision to pit Norris ahead of Piastri at the final round of stops created an awkward situation for McLaren, who were forced to plead with Norris to swap positions back with his young team mate – the switch only coming two laps from the end, to allow Piastri to claim his first Grand Prix win.
Meanwhile, Lewis Hamilton survived late contact with old rival Max Verstappen to claim his own 200th podium in Formula 1.
