Summary

Edd Straw, Jon Noble and Josh Suttill convene in Budapest to unpack the Hungarian Grand Prix, which was won by McLaren's Lando Norris after he held off charging team-mate Oscar Piastri in the closing stages. But why did Norris end up on the winning one-stop strategy, and why did Charles Leclerc’s victory chances evaporate after leading the first stint? Those are among the questions answered in today's podcast, which also tackles the usual host of questions sent in by listeners in The Race Members' Club.
