Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri were two big surprises at the British Grand Prix. Norris himself got to take the medal of honour. Piastri finished in fourth place. Handsome performances for the British team that already finished P2 and P3 in qualifying at Silverstone. Norris and Piastri look ahead to next weekend at the Hungaroring in their preview.

Norris is still reeling from the Silverstone race: "Getting on the podium in Silverstone felt really good. It's great to be in that position, but we'll keep working hard for the rest of the season as we keep improving our performance," said the looking back Englishman.

Piastri looks forward to Hungary GP

"I'm looking forward to returning to the Hungaroring. It can be a tricky circuit in certain places, but we enjoy the challenge. I'm excited to get into this double-header, and hopefully go well in Budapest," said Piastri, who is riding high in his first season in Formula 1.

At the start of the season, the McLaren car looked anything but good, but several updates to the car have allowed Piastri and Norris to compete at the top of the Formula 1 grid. The two drivers even managed to give Max Verstappen a hard time at the start of the British Grand Prix.
