One week prior, Fernando Alonso and Lance Stroll locked out the back row at Spa-Francorchamps, but at the Hungaroring they claimed fifth and sixth on the grid – their best result since they qualified respectively fourth and third at the 2023 Brazilian GP. But this time, they were barely one tenth away from pole position.

Aston Martin F1 star Fernando Alonso has issued an update on how his team helped him get through health issues during the Hungarian Grand Prix weekend.

Aston Martin have made their unhappy feelings known to a television channel over their reporting. Sky Germany, whose key pundit is Ralf Schumacher, have irked the Formula 1 team. Crash.net understands that Aston Martin stopped short of boycotting Sky Germany, but have called for improvements to the balance and tone of their reporting.
