Designers Can Cut Microplastics: Cotton Incorporated Study Finds Apparel Drives 14 Percent of Plastic Pollution

One qualifying session remains ahead of Formula 1’s August shutdown.

Who will take pole position at the Hungaroring?

It was a “Ferrari Friday” at the Hungarian Grand Prix yesterday, as Charles Leclerc topped the timing sheets in FP1, then finished second to teammate Lewis Hamilton during FP2. In the days leading up to the Hungarian Grand Prix many tapped Ferrari as the favorites, including McLaren team principal Andrea Stella, and those early projections may turn out to be true.

However, teams had all Friday night to pour over the data from the first two hours of practice, and have one more hour of work ahead of the qualifying session. Can anyone catch Ferrari at the Hungaroring?

In a few short hours, we will find out together.

Qualifying gets underway at 10:00 a.m. Eastern on Saturday morning, so follow along with us live!

And don’t forget, you can join the conversation at the all-new F1 Feed! We’ll have a qualifying thread there for you as well, so you can chat as the hour ticks down. For help navigating the feed, we have a handy “how to” post for you to review.
