BUDAPEST, July 25 : McLaren's reigning world champion Lando Norris was fastest in final practice for the Hungarian Grand Prix on Saturday.
BUDAPEST: Formula One has been driven too much by business decisions and needs to remember it is a sport, according to McLaren’s world champion Lando Norris. With drivers chafing at new regulations that have cramped their speed, particularly at last weekend’s Belgian Grand Prix, the Briton told reporters ahead of Sunday’s Hungarian round that Formula One could do better. “It’s a business,” said the Briton. “Everyone wants to make money, so in order for Audi and other teams to come in we had to change these things. It’s a shame. It should never have been like that. But that’s how businesses work.” Audi have entered the sport this season after taking over Swiss-based Sauber, with the German carmaker encouraged by new rules that have increased the electrical element of the power unit to near-parity with the internal combustion engine. The rules have been tweaked for 2027 to reduce the electrical contribution. “Formula One will always be great,” said Norris, whose car has a Mercedes engine. “It can just be better. “Us as drivers just know it better than everyone else. The thing that’s a shame is that Formula One is too heavily led by the fact it’s a business nowadays and not how can you make the sport the best possible? It’s ‘how can you just make the most money as a business?’. “And that’s just not what it should simply be. That’s not how a sport should be run. The fact we have hybrids, 50-50 and all that, that’s just because more teams wanted to come in it and because you make more money.”

SPA-FRANCORCHAMPS, Belgium, July 18 : Formula One leader Kimi Antonelli celebrated his father's birthday by taking pole position for Sunday's Belgian Grand Prix with Red Bull's Max Verstappen alongside on the front row and Mercedes teammate and title rival George Russell right behind.
SPA-FRANCORCHAMPS, Belgium: Ferrari is rushing to get Lewis Hamilton’s car repaired in time for qualifying for the Belgian Grand Prix later Saturday after the seven-time Formula 1 champion hit a barrier in practice. Hamilton ran wide over a gravel trap and clipped the barrier with his rear-right wheel, smashing the suspension and causing other damage to the back of the car. “I’ve destroyed the car, mate, sorry,” he told the team over the radio. The British driver was left to watch the end of the third practice session from behind a wall as the rest of the field headed to the pits ahead of qualifying. Defending champion Lando Norris has a 10-place grid penalty, while there are also penalties for Red Bull’s Isack Hadjar and the two Aston Martin drivers, Fernando Alonso and Lance Stroll.
