F1 Qualifying Today: 2024 Hungarian Grand Prix Start Times, Schedule & TV

Formula 1 qualifying takes centre stage today (Saturday 20 July) at the 2024 Hungarian Grand Prix, with teams battling for starting positions for Sunday’s race at the Hungaroring.

After winning back-to-back races with George Russell at the Red Bull Ring and Lewis Hamilton at Silverstone, Mercedes are now looking to capitalise on their momentum and secure their third win this season.

The Silver Arrows have a strong track record at the Hungaroring with nine pole positions and have taken the first starting position for the past four years.

However, they face stiff competition this weekend from McLaren, Ferrari and Red Bull, with the latter looking to regain its dominance on the track after Max Verstappen’s two consecutive race winless spell.
