Unbelievable misunderstanding as Piastri and Norris almost collide!

In a session dominated from start to finish by McLaren—just like in FP1—the two papaya-clad drivers came dangerously close to a major incident just minutes before the end of FP2.

As Oscar Piastri came flying down the straight at high speed, Lando Norris was just exiting the pit lane — but he clearly didn’t notice his teammate approaching fast on his left. Lando was forced to slam on the brakes just before Turn 1, and the two narrowly avoided a collision.

Fortunately, there were no consequences for either driver, as they managed to get through Turn 2 without any issues — though not without a serious scare and a completely unnecessary risk.

Aside from that moment, the session was thoroughly dominated by the papaya duo, with Norris topping the timesheets in 1:15.624, reaffirming his dominance at a circuit he clearly enjoys — the Hungaroring. Piastri followed in second, nearly three tenths adrift of his teammate.

Both drivers will likely get a stern talking-to from Andrea Stella, as the near-miss could have easily resulted in serious damage to both cars.
