Qualifying for the Hungary GP is over and Lewis Hamilton took his 104th pole position. Hardly anyone had seen this fast lap by the Mercedes driver coming beforehand. Hamilton defeated Max Verstappen by three thousandths of a second and it promises to be an exciting start with the two 2021 bantams next to each other. The internet is also expecting spectacle from the two. This is how the internet (Twitter) reacts to qualifying at Hungaroring:
