What we learned from Friday F1 observe on the Hungarian GP
Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc closed out a frantic FP2 session in preparation for Sunday’s Hungarian Immense Prix, as neither Crimson Bull nor Mercedes jam the Formulation 1 timing monitors alight.
The Monegasque beat Silverstone podium-finisher Lando Norris to the uppermost echelon of the timing board amid a session that was as soon as influenced by each earlier rainfall and the different tyre allocation trial jam for qualifying on Saturday. Two crimson flags had stifled running in FP1, as did the emergence of precipitation over the Mogyorod put, leaving the drivers to search out scarce grip on a ‘inexperienced’ circuit in FP2.
With the allocation of dry tyres lowered from 13 to 11 for the Hungary weekend owing to the trials of jam tyre compounds for every share of qualifying, groups wanted to be sparing with their allowances despite the lack of dry running in FP1. Regardless, here are the main takeaways from Friday observe for Hungarian Immense Prix.
The memoir of the day
A rain-affected opening free observe session on the Hungaroring yielded very slight in phrases of useable facts, save for token runs on the moist compounds of tyre as two crimson flags interrupted many of the groups’ speed plans. At the destroy of the session, under-rigidity Sergio Perez’s Crimson Bull swapped ends at Turn 5 and left him careening into the wall, producing the foremost of two pauses in running.
In the damage as the afflicted RB19 was as soon as fished out of the barrier, rain began to fall and intensified sufficient to position all dry running into test for the relaxation of the session. Drivers tentatively visited the ever-dampening circuit on intermediate rubber – and, in Kevin Magnussen’s case, the moist compound – to discover the limits of grip readily accessible.
Carlos Sainz then brought out the 2d crimson flag in the 2d half of of the session having misplaced control of his Ferrari on the exit of Turn 3, clunking the inside of barrier on the stretch against Turn 4. The Spaniard nibbled off share of his entrance cruise and was as soon as spared blushes by the marshals after beaching his SF-23 on the grass.
George Russell’s slack effort on intermediate tyres was as soon as sufficient to catapult the Briton to the destroy of the timing boards, sooner than Oscar Piastri and Lance Stroll, and there had been threats of endured rain into FP2.

This was as soon as in the destroy no longer realised and the circuit had dried out by the level the 2d observe session had begun. The gap 20 minutes had been headed by the Williams drivers, as Logan Sargeant’s opening effort on soft tyres had given him the springboard to vault to the destroy of the timing board. The American had admittedly been going against the grain when the relaxation of the sector opened their accounts on the medium compound, whereas he and Albon furious relating to the softest compound readily accessible.
When Albon switched to medium tyres he ended Sargeant’s speed atop the timing board, nonetheless the Anglo-Thai driver was as soon as rapidly displaced by a sequence of soppy-tyre laps which had foisted Yuki Tsunoda to the destroy. This was as soon as overturned by Norris on a 1m17.701s lap, sooner than the McLaren driver was as soon as succeeded by Leclerc’s 1m17.686s.
The longer runs had been most tormented by the groups’ keenness to save tyres, increasing a actually clouded characterize of what to demand over the relaxation of the weekend. Moreover, the mandated tyre compounds for every session in qualifying – hards in Q1, mediums in Q2, softs in Q3 – created differences of focus between every of the groups as they idea-about which share was as soon as most traumatic of their instantaneous attention.
It is anticipated that Budapest temperatures will attain around 30C for Sunday’s flee. This is liable to rule out any mainstream use of the soft tyre, lest it soften correct into a camembert-bask in ooze when in contact with the Hungaroring observe
Crimson Bull, to illustrate, poured its focus onto the soft tyre with Max Verstappen given the Dutchman could possibly perchance be anticipated to make the relaxation share of qualifying. Sergio Perez, most certainly in preserving at the side of his FP1 scrapes, was as soon as given a sizzling lap on the medium compound as the Mexican hopes to cease his crawl of no longer showing in Q3. At the opposite cease, Kevin Magnussen stitched some sizzling laps collectively on the toughest compound as Haas gave the impact to get abilities on the compound in use for Q1.
Unpicking the prolonged-speed uncertainty
As the groups saved tyres, it created particular ranges of variance in the general say of FP2 as ragged frontrunners did no longer necessarily have faith their customary areas on the destroy of the timing boards. In some cases, a parsimonious methodology with tyres compelled the groups into longer runs in FP2 than they’d most certainly customarily cease, particularly on the medium tyre.
It is anticipated that, after variable climate on Friday, customary service will resume and Budapest temperatures will attain around 30C by the level of Sunday’s flee. This is liable to rule out any mainstream use of the soft tyre in the flee, lest it soften correct into a camembert-bask in ooze when in contact with the Hungaroring observe surface. Most plumped for prolonged runs on the medium compound, and the following desk reveals the finest times of these conducting the longer runs. In the match that a driver conducted a couple of runs on the an identical compound, the longer speed has been old.

*Ferrari, Crimson Bull, AlphaTauri did no longer total manual prolonged runs on mediums
Alfa Romeo grew to vary into the shock that caught the leer on a mixed up Friday
Listing by: Zak Mauger / Motorsport Pictures
The performance of Alfa Romeo on their prolonged-speed simulations is a shock, nonetheless the stable feedback from the drivers after the session means that some of it is a long way rooted in actuality rather than skewed by the tyre allocation boundaries.
“Our vehicle perceived to work barely smartly with the medium,” reckoned Valtteri Bottas after the session. “That was as soon as the finest compound we old. And yes, this day they work smartly with our vehicle. We will discover the next day with the laborious and the soft as smartly. Nonetheless at least this day, what was as soon as obvious for the vehicle, it was as soon as in actuality stable general, which helped to assault the corners on this form of observe. And that’s causes why I feel the lap time was as soon as also half of decent.
“For me here, it appears bask in we will provide you with the option to be a slight bit extra competitive. It appears bask in in the leisurely velocity stuff the steadiness of the vehicle is continuously factual here and there could be most efficient a couple of greater velocity corners and the balance is continuously OK. So I feel this observe could possibly swimsuit us a slight bit greater, nonetheless let’s stare the next day.”
Having been surpassed by Williams of slack in the battle for seventh in the constructors’ standings, Alfa Romeo at this stage appears to stand a factual probability of providing the British squad with a actually accurate threat. Naturally, there could possibly be some regression to the purpose out – nonetheless if the C43’s drivers could possibly perchance profit from of that balance in qualifying, then Alfa will jam itself up smartly on a circuit where overtaking is especially sophisticated to perform.
McLaren’s shuffle seemed stable too, despite the actual fact that the physique of workers most certainly has some hiss over the general performance of the MCL60 in decrease-velocity stipulations. Norris’s general stint was as soon as nonetheless spectacular, sitting in the low 1m23s with ease for roughly half of of his longest speed, and Piastri’s moderate time over a seven-lap stint was as soon as a 1m23.640s – two tenths off his physique of workers-mate’s moderate lap.
Whereas Mercedes did its medium tyre runs with a jam it had already old in FP1, these had scarcely had the sheen taken off of them sooner than the Perez-enforced crimson flag and subsequent onset of rain. Regardless, the tyres had been no longer at their absolute height of performance and this a slight hindered its general speed plans.
“It did no longer in actuality feel too heinous in all honesty,” talked about George Russell. “We had been obviously on very varied programmes to everybody else, as we most efficient old one jam of tyres right through. It was as soon as a jam of old tyres as smartly from FP1. So, the lap times don’t in actuality give a simply illustration, and I’m particular the next day could possibly be greater. Nonetheless we’re serene perfect furious about searching to augment.

“We at all times know that we form of tend to get greater as the weekend progresses, which is the factual methodology spherical for it to be. There had been a couple of sharp issues we learned even in that one session, so let’s stare what we are able to enact tonight.”
Crimson Bull and Ferrari conducted a slight unrepresentative longer runs on the soft tyre, nonetheless the foremost-named physique of workers was as soon as a slight little bit of quicker through Verstappen’s 9-lap stint. The Dutchman’s moderate stint sat at 1m23.335s, when put next to the 1m23.547s of Leclerc and 1m23.850s of Carlos Sainz.
Nailing the oft-maligned tweaks to qualifying, as the drivers proved no longer to be particularly wild followers of the minute running across the classes, could possibly be particularly crucial in the tight and testing environs of the Hungaroring circuit. Crimson Bull, no doubt, could possibly perchance be the favourite heading into Sunday’s flee. Nonetheless, if a obvious physique of workers is ready to capitalise on the chaos and beat Verstappen to pole, then he’ll bear extra of a job on his hands to elongate his contemporary crawl of wins.
“After I build the helmet on and bought in the vehicle, all of it felt in a methodology bask in I never in actuality left” Daniel Ricciardo
What they talked about
Max Verstappen: “We can eye through the guidelines to eye if all the issues is correlating smartly because we haven’t old heaps of tyre units this day. With this new layout you are perfect big minute with the tyre units that it is most likely you’ll use, and I didn’t are searching to utilize them this day to at least bear a slight bit extra of a bigger preparation the next day. Now we must eye what we are able to enact to augment that, because we are actually saving tyres, which I feel is no longer the simply thing. Nonetheless from our side the vehicle felt no longer too heinous. We had a slight little bit of understeer, nonetheless then I went out any other time and the future seemed barely competitive. It’s a slight bit sophisticated to dispute the one lap shuffle but, nonetheless the vehicle is serene stable.”
Lewis Hamilton: “It wasn’t feeling factual. It was as soon as feeling bask in the vehicle at its worst this day nonetheless we work on the jam-up tonight and optimistically the next day, customarily bask in final 300 and sixty five days it felt horrid on the begin after which you flip it around with some jam-up adjustments. So we’re working on that tonight. Confidently the next day could possibly be greater.”
Daniel Ricciardo: “I feel space, or no longer it is most likely no longer too relevant for the time being. Nonetheless I feel it was as soon as extra perfect for me this day to in actuality feel customarily where I’m with a vehicle. And all of it felt barely familiar. I feel obviously, there could be heaps of exterior attention. Nonetheless when I build the helmet on and bought in the vehicle, all of it felt in a methodology bask in I never in actuality left. So that was as soon as good. And obviously this morning, we did no longer in actuality get anything else nonetheless this afternoon, I feel yeah, perfect a slight bit bit on the brand new tyre, nonetheless nothing in actuality I’m focused on, I feel the vehicle felt adequate. So to be factual it would no longer in actuality feel too heinous, a slight little bit of labor tonight, nonetheless nothing crazy.”

The memory of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine on February 24, 2022, remains vivid for Olympic diver Anna Pysmenska.
“When the invasion began at 4 a.m., I was in shock and didn’t know what to do. By 7 a.m., I was at the swimming pool training,” the 33-year-old shared with CNN Sport. “It was terrifying.”
As one of nine Ukrainian divers set to compete in the Paris Olympic Games, Pysmenska is no longer afraid; she’s channeling her anger into her sport, determined to represent her country.
For the first time in 12 years, Ukraine will have representation in all synchronized high diving and 3-meter springboard events for both men and women.
“We live under constant pressure,” said Pysmenska, who will be competing in her third Olympics. “During the day, we focus all our energy on preparing for the Games, but at night, we’re often awakened by explosions or sirens. The stress is immense.”
Originally from central Ukraine, Pysmenska trained in the eastern city of Luhansk until she fled in 2014 after Russian forces occupied the area.
“I didn’t even pack my belongings. I never imagined I wouldn’t return,” she recounted.
Since her escape, Pysmenska has been haunted by a recurring dream: attempting to return to Luhansk, only to find herself trapped by Russian forces.
After relocating her training to Kyiv, Anna Pysmenska faced another challenge when Russia attempted to invade the city again in February 2022.
Following the onset of the war, Pysmenska and her team moved to Croatia, but they returned to Kyiv in the summer of 2022. Yet, the relentless Russian attacks have made focus and preparation increasingly difficult.
“We train every day and are physically prepared, but morally, it’s tough,” Pysmenska admitted. “I was in tears a few days ago. The constant blackouts disrupt everything—I can’t eat properly. There’s no way to plan; the lights are never on. It feels like we’re living in the Stone Age. It’s incredibly unsettling.”
Power Outages and Air Raid Sirens
As Russia targets Ukraine’s energy infrastructure, blackouts have become increasingly prolonged. To combat ongoing power outages, the Ukrainian Diving Federation purchased a powerful generator for the training pool.
When an air raid siren sounds during practice, athletes must promptly stop and take shelter in the bomb shelter.
“Diving is a challenging sport,” said Ilya Tselutin, the national team coach, in an interview with CNN. “Before each jump, athletes need to warm up and prepare. After a disruption, they have to start their preparation all over again.”
A total of 136 divers from around the globe are expected to compete at the 2024 Olympic Games in France.
Judges will evaluate each dive based on several criteria, including the aesthetic quality of the diver’s movements, the dive’s complexity, and the diver’s entry into the water. In synchronized diving, additional points are awarded for how well the two divers match each other’s movements.
For coach Ilya Tselutin, these Games represent more than just competition.
“The divers’ mission is to win top-level medals and raise the Ukrainian flag as high as possible. This is their front line right now. They aim to demonstrate that our country is resilient and our nation is invincible,” he stated.
First Appearance in Paris
The Paris Games will mark 21-year-old Danylo Konovalov’s Olympic debut.
His day starts at 7 a.m. with two training sessions. When air raid sirens sound, he utilizes the time in the basement to do some physical exercises.
Born in the southern Ukrainian city of Mykolaiv, Konovalov has been unable to train in his hometown due to the invasion.
In April 2022, Russian forces destroyed a water pipeline, leaving the city without access to drinking water. This prompted Konovalov to initially leave Ukraine, but he soon returned to Kyiv to continue his training. His parents still reside in Mykolaiv, a city under constant attack.
“I avoid reading the news; it keeps me calmer. My mom updates me, allowing me to focus on my sport,” Konovalov shared with CNN.
On July 5, the diving team held a farewell ceremony in Kyiv, starting with a priest’s blessing at a nearby church.
Konovalov follows several superstitions that he considers crucial to his performance. “I have my lucky swimwear that helps me jump well. It’s also important to place my slippers correctly; if I have a good jump, I always put them in the same spot,” he explained.
If he wins a medal, Konovalov plans to dedicate his achievement to Ukraine and its soldiers. Despite the turmoil in his homeland, he remains determined to focus on the Olympic Games, viewing his participation as a way to support Ukraine in its fight.
Ollie Watkins Secures England’s Euro 2024 Final Spot with Stunning Late Goal Against Netherlands
Xavi Simons’ Rocket Gives Netherlands Early Lead; Harry Kane’s Penalty Equalizes for England
In a tightly contested match, chances were scarce in the second half. However, substitute Ollie Watkins clinched a dramatic victory for England in added time, stunning the Netherlands.
England Makes History with First Major Final on Foreign Soil
Manager Gareth Southgate and his team have the opportunity to redeem their heartbreak from the previous final against Italy three years ago. They face Spain, the standout team of Euro 2024.
Ollie Watkins, the match-winner, expressed his anticipation for weeks leading up to his crucial goal, set up by substitute Cole Palmer. Watkins praised Palmer, affirming his confidence in their game plan: ‘I told Cole Palmer before we came on today that he would set me up, and he did exactly that.’
Seeing it go into the bottom corner was an incredible feeling. Despite the criticism, reaching the final is what counts. We’ve tuned out the distractions and now we’re here.
“We’ve shown resilience, bouncing back from a goal down, winning on penalties, and staging comebacks. One more game to go,” Watkins said, looking ahead to Sunday’s final.
The Three Lions Roar Once More
England Faces Euro 2024 Challenges Amidst High Expectations.
Despite boasting a plethora of world-class attacking talent, England has struggled to find its rhythm in the tournament. Many fans have found Gareth Southgate’s team difficult to watch, criticizing its perceived negativity and defensive style. The team narrowly topped a relatively weak group, with criticisms focusing on predictable passing and sluggish movement.
England’s Path to the Semifinals Marked by Individual Brilliance. England advanced to the semifinals on the strength of standout performances from Jude Bellingham and Bukayo Saka, whose individual brilliance rescued the Three Lions in their previous knockout matches.
Similarly, the Netherlands faced challenges in Germany, narrowly making it to the knockout stage as one of the top four third-placed teams. They had to stage a comeback against Turkey in the quarterfinals to secure their spot in the next round.
However, in tournament football, the ultimate goal remains clear: winning the trophy. Supporters from both nations would overlook any number of lackluster showings if their team manages to lift the Henri Delaunay Cup on Sunday.
From the outset, the semifinal clash in Dortmund proved more captivating than any previous matches for both teams at Euro 2024.
Xavi Simons, named in homage to Barcelona legend Xavi Hernández, seized the moment early on, dispossessing Declan Rice and unleashing a sensational strike into England’s top corner just seven minutes into the game.
England, now compelled to attack—an aspect they’ve struggled with in Germany—responded swiftly, equalizing just 10 minutes later. A VAR intervention confirmed Denzel Dumfries’ foul on Harry Kane inside the penalty area, prompting referee Felix Zwayer to award a penalty after Kane’s acrobatic attempt narrowly missed the mark.
Harry Kane, overcoming past World Cup woes, confidently placed his penalty low into the bottom corner to level the score against the Netherlands.
Denzel Dumfries then came to the Netherlands’ rescue, clearing Phil Foden’s goal-bound effort off the line and later striking the crossbar with a powerful header at the other end.
Foden, having his standout performance of the tournament, was unlucky to hit the post with a superb curled shot from distance.
England displayed dominance in a thrilling first half, prompting reflection on their performance throughout the tournament. Passes were precise, runs were incisive, and there was a willingness to shoot on sight.
The halftime break left England fans optimistic, sensing a turnaround in form crucial for a semifinal. However, Ronald Koeman’s tactical adjustments tightened the Netherlands’ midfield, stifling England’s creativity in the second half.
England struggled to break through the resolute Dutch defense, resorting to sideways and backward passes as they searched for openings.
Thankfully for England, the Netherlands failed to mount significant threats, keeping both goalkeepers relatively untested—until Watkins shattered Dutch hopes.
Facing Stefan de Vrij with his back to the goal, Watkins received Palmer’s pass, maneuvered for space, and unleashed a superb strike into the bottom corner.
England has endured decades of disappointment and heartbreak since their 1966 World Cup triumph, with Gareth Southgate familiar with these struggles more than most. Now, the team stands poised for another opportunity to end 58 years of longing.
In a surprising upset at Wimbledon, World No. 1 Iga Świątek faced a shocking defeat in the third round against Kazakhstan’s Yulia Putintseva. The Polish star, who had not lost a match in nearly three months, including a dominant victory at the French Open, seemed poised to continue her streak after taking the first set 6-3.

Following an impressive clay court season, Iga Świątek skipped warm-up tournaments on grass, emphasizing the need for patience and acceptance of errors on the faster surface.
Transitioning from her peak performance on clay, Świątek admitted to grappling with the adjustment, noting, “For me, moving from a surface where I felt I was playing the best tennis of my life to one where I face more challenges, it’s not straightforward.”
In contrast, her opponent, Yulia Putintseva, has excelled on grass, remaining undefeated this season and securing her first title on the surface in Birmingham last month. Putintseva’s prowess was evident in the match, highlighted by precision shots like a well-executed backhand crosscourt pass that frustrated Świątek and a delicate slice return winner to stave off a set point.
After a strong start by Świątek in the first set, Yulia Putintseva steadily dismantled the Polish player’s game, dominating the second set to even the match. In the decisive third set, Putintseva maintained her composure while Świątek struggled with uncharacteristic errors, tallying 38 compared to Putintseva’s 15.
Reflecting on her performance, Putintseva expressed her fearless approach, telling reporters, “I believed 100 percent, I had nothing to lose, just go for it.” Encouraged by her coach to commit fully to every shot, Putintseva now looks ahead to a matchup with Jelena Ostapenko on Monday for a spot in the quarterfinals.
In other Wimbledon action, Novak Djokovic overcame an initial setback to defeat Australia’s Alexei Popyrin 4-6, 6-3, 6-4, 7-6 (7-3), setting up a fourth-round encounter with Holger Rune.
