Lando Norris will head McLaren's first front-row lockout since Brazil 2012 at the Hungarian Grand Prix, with teammate Oscar Piastri alongside. 

Red Bull's reigning world champion Max Verstappen will go from third, ahead of Ferrari's Carlos Sainz, Lewis Hamilton's Mercedes, and Charles Leclerc. 

Aston Martin duo Fernando Alonso and Lance Stroll will line up seventh and eighth.

RB's Yuki Tsunoda (who qualified in 10th) and Alpine's Pierre Gasly (qualified 20th) will start from the pitlane.

RB have changed Tsunoda's survival cell, while Alpine introduced a new battery to Gasly's pool of PU components.

Multiple cars will move forward one place due to Tsunoda dropping into the pitlane, most notably Sergio Perez and George Russell.

After his qualifying nightmare, Perez will start 15th, with Mercedes' George Russell only 16th following his shock Q1 elimination.
