Hungarian GP: Qualifying - Re-Cap & Results

HUNGARIAN GRAND PRIX - QUALIFYING

    Qualifying was delayed by 20 minutes due to heavy rain and was stopped due to multiple red flags. Both Massa and Ericsson crashed in Q1 and Alonso had a spin in Q3. Nico Rosberg will start the race from Pole Position. He was called to the stewards after Qualifying, as he was on his hot lap when yellow flags were waved for Alonso's spin. It was rumoured that Rosberg had not sufficiently slowed for the yellow flags. But after the FIA investigated the situation, Rosberg kept his result of Pole Position.

    5 drivers were under threat of losing their grid positions after failing to set a time within 107% of the leader in Q1. Perez, Hulkenberg, Verstappen, Ricciardo and Bottas were all investigated for this but were later granted permission to start the race.

    Marcus Ericsson will be starting from pit-lane due to needing a chassis replacement after his crash at Turn 8 during Q1.

HOW IT WORKS:

Q1 = 18 minutes. All cars allowed to go out. At the end of the session, the six slowest are eliminated.

Q2 = 15 minutes. The remaining cars go out. At the end of the session, the six slowest are eliminated.

Manor did not take place in Qualifying and it looks unlikely that they will be racing due to not being ready in time. It's quite unfortunate as they've been working really hard. However, they look forward to prepping for Malaysia in just a few weeks.

During Q2, Valtteri Bottas suffered from a back injury and after Q3, was taken to the medical centre for checks and evaluation. It is unknown if he will be racing today as he has spent the night in a local hospital.
