Red Bull’s reigning champion Verstappen pulled out another 17 points over Ferrari drivers’ title rival Charles Leclerc, who led in Hungary before a poor strategy decision dropped him back to finish sixth.
Verstappen’s lead is now 80 points over Leclerc as he bids for a second successive drivers’ title. His Red Bull teammate Sergio Perez’s fifth position in Hungary means he's within five points of Leclerc’s second spot in the points.

Seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton’s runner-up finish puts him with 10 of Sainz in sixth.
