What channel is F1 Hungarian Grand Prix on today? TV schedule, start time for 2024 race

After a short break following a thrilling British Grand Prix, Formula One returns with the 13th race of the season as the Hungarian Grand Prix from the Hungaroring in Mogyorod marks the beginning of the second half of the 2024 campaign.

Lights out at the Hungaroring is in just a few hours' time, as defending champion Max Verstappen, who has won the last three races here, looks to get back to winning ways following successive close-run losses in Austria and Great Britain respectively.

Two Brits have stormed to victory in the last two meetings, with George Russell winning at the Red Bull Ring in Austria following a clash between his compatriot Lando Norris and Verstappen as the race approached its climax, and Lewis Hamilton collected a record ninth British Grand Prix crown last time out with his first victory overall since the 2021 season.

With Russell and Hamilton both picking up their first race wins of the 2024 season, Mercedes appear to be the team to beat ahead of today's meeting at the Hungaroring. Verstappen still holds an 84-point lead at the top of the World Drivers' Championship , and expect him, Ferrari duo Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz, and McLaren's Norris and Oscar Piastri all to be fighting it out at the top of the podium.
