Hamilton takes record pole in Hungary
The 38-year-old Briton was just 0.003 faster than Red Bull's championship leader for what was also a record ninth pole at the Hungaroring -- the most by any driver in the history of the sport at one circuit.
"I feel so grateful to be up here because the team have worked so hard. We've been pushing so hard over this time to finally get a pole and it just feels like the first time." "We’re still second, but I think we should be ahead with the car we have normally, but so far this weekend I think we haven’t been on it."
Red Bull's Sergio Perez, second overall but 99 points behind Verstappen after 10 races, made the final phase for the first time since Miami in May but qualified only ninth and next to Haas's Nico Hulkenberg in 10th. The Australian, a winner in Hungary with Red Bull in 2014, will start 13th with Tsunoda 17th on the grid.
