Formula 1: How to watch the Hungarian Grand Prix on TV and what to know

BUDAPEST (AP) — Here's a guide that tells you what you need to know about the Hungarian Grand Prix. It's the 14th round of the 2025 Formula 1 season.

— In the U.S., on ESPN.

— Other countries are listed here.

Hungarian Grand Prix, 70 laps of the 4.38-kilometer (2.72-mile) circuit. It starts at 3 p.m. local time (9 a.m. ET / 1300 GMT).

Twisty, bumpy and dusty, the Hungaroring is one of the hardest circuits to overtake on all year. It's even been likened to the Monaco street circuit for the importance of qualifying and grid position. Hungary first hosted an F1 race under communist rule in 1986. Lewis Hamilton is the record holder there with eight wins from 2007-2020. Oscar Piastri took his first career win last year after an awkward stand-off with teammate Lando Norris over team orders.

Charles Leclerc surprised the two McLarens — and himself — by taking the first pole position of the year for Ferrari. Piastri starts second and Norris is third, while Verstappen is eighth. Lewis Hamilton was left questioning his abilities after placing 12th in the other Ferrari, especially given the contrast to Leclerc's success.

Piastri overtook Norris and held on with worn tires to take his sixth win of the season at the Belgian Grand Prix after a long delay for heavy rain. The Australian driver extended his standings lead over his teammate Norris to 16 points.

— Ferrari’s Leclerc stuns the McLarens to take pole for F1’s Hungarian Grand Prix

— Lewis Hamilton says he’s ‘useless’ and suggests a driver change at Ferrari after teammate takes pole

— Piastri has ‘confidence’ in his F1 title shot as he returns to Hungary, where he got his 1st win

— Piastri beats Norris to win Formula 1’s rain-delayed Belgian Grand Prix

— F1 champion Max Verstappen says he’s staying with Red Bull team for 2026

8 — Piastri's win at the Belgian Grand Prix put him level with Norris and Ferrari's Leclerc on eight career wins. They're joint-fourth among active drivers.

3 — The last three races have been a McLaren one-two finish for Piastri and Norris, something no team had done since 2019. The all-time record for a team is five one-two finishes in a row.

200 — Fresh off committing to Red Bull for 2026, Max Verstappen is set for his 200th race with the team.

370 — Lewis Hamilton marks his 370th race in F1, but he's still far off Fernando Alonso's record. The Spanish two-time champion will race for the 415th time.

“I’m useless, absolutely useless." — Lewis Hamilton reacts to his qualifying result.

“Today, I don’t understand anything in Formula 1.” — Charles Leclerc is shocked to qualify on pole.

"I’m discussing with the team already the plans — the things that we want to change for next year, so that means that I’m also staying with the team for next year.” — Max Verstappen says he won't be leaving Red Bull for 2026.

The search is on for one missing U.S. service member while another was rescued after two U.S. warplanes went down in separate incidents including the first shoot-down since the Iran war began nearly five weeks ago.

The incidents occurred just two days after President Donald Trump said in a national address that the U.S. has “beaten and completely decimated Iran.”

One fighter jet was shot down in Iran, officials said. A U.S. crew member from that plane was rescued, but a second was missing, and a U.S. military search-and-rescue operation was underway.

Separately, Iranian state media said a U.S. A-10 attack aircraft crashed in the Persian Gulf after being struck by Iranian defense forces. A U.S. official, speaking on condition of anonymity to discuss a sensitive military situation, said it was not clear if the aircraft crashed or was shot down.

The war now entering its sixth week is destabilizing economies around the world as Iran responds to the U.S. and Israeli attacks by targeting the Gulf region's energy infrastructure and tightening its grip on oil and natural gas shipments through the Strait of Hormuz.

Here is the latest:

Omar al-Waeli, head of Iraq’s Border Ports Authority, said on Saturday that the strike on the Shalamcheh border crossing killed one person and wounded five others.

Authorities did not offer further details on the strike. But trade and passenger traffic is suspended at the crossing, which is crucial for Iranian imports and Iranian pilgrims headed to Iraq’s Shiite shrines.

The Iraqi government said it was directing traders and travelers to alternative crossings.

The International Atomic Energy Agency said on Saturday that it has been informed by Iran about the strike near the premises of the Bushehr nuclear facility that killed a security guard and impacted a building in the complex.

“No increase in radiation levels was reported” following the strike, the IAEA said in a social media post.

Bahrain’s Defense Ministry reported the tally in a social media post on Saturday.

This brings the total number of projectiles fired at the country since the start of the war to 188 missiles and 453 drones.

Bahrain hosts the U.S. Navy’s 5th Fleet.

The Atomic Energy Organization of Iran said in a social media post Saturday that an airstrike near its Bushehr nuclear facility killed a security guard and damaged a support building.

It is the fourth time the facility has been targeted during the war.

The Bushehr nuclear power plant uses low-enriched uranium from Russia, along with Russian technicians, to supply about 1,000 megawatts of power for Iran.

Its pressurized-water reactor can power hundreds of thousands of homes and other businesses and industries. But it contributes only 1% to 2% of Iran’s total power needs.

Iran has been trying to expand the facility to multiple reactors. In 2019, it began a project that ultimately plans to add two additional reactors to the site, each adding another 1,000 megawatts apiece.

Italian Premier Giorgia Meloni has discussed with Saudi Prime Minister Mohammed bin Salman defensive military assistance that Italy is providing against Iranian reprisals to U.S.-Israeli attacks.

A brief statement from Meloni's office Saturday did not specify what type of assistance Italy is providing.

It also said the two discussed diplomatic efforts to end the war, the importance of opening the Strait of Hormuz and “more broadly how to promote a regional framework that can break free from the current cycle of conflict.”

Meloni will continue her visit in Qatar and the United Arab Emirates.

U.S. and Israeli warplanes continued to pound Iran Saturday, hitting several targets including a petrochemical facility, Iranian media reported.

Iran's official English-language newspaper Tehran Times reported that an airstrike hit a facility belonging to Iran’s Agriculture Ministry in the western city of Mehran.

The newspaper said another air raid struck Mahshahr Special Petrochemical Zone in the southwestern Khuzestan province.

The semiofficial Fars news agency reported several explosions heard late Saturday morning in the facility.

Mehr, another semiofficial news agency, reported that the strikes hit four companies within the zone.

Mohammad Bagher Qalibaf made the veiled threat in a social media post late Friday, asking about how busy oil tanker and container ship traffic is through the strait.

The 20-mile (32-kilometer) strait links the Red Sea with the Gulf of Aden and the Indian Ocean and is one of the busiest chokepoints in global trade, with more than a tenth of seaborne global oil and a quarter of container ships passing through it.

Iran has already greatly disrupted the flow of oil through the Strait of Hormuz, sending fuel prices skyrocketing and jolting the world economy.

Disrupting transit through the Bab el-Madeb would force shipping firms to route their vessels around the Cape of Good Hope at the southern tip of Africa, further hitting prices.

Israel’s rescue services said Saturday the man sustained glass shrapnel wounds after an Iranian missile hit the central city of Bnei Brak.

It wasn't clear if the glass shrapnel was caused by a direct strike or falling debris from an intercepted missile.

Israel’s Magen David Adom rescue services said it was taking the man to the hospital.

The Iranian judiciary's Mizan news agency said Saturday that the two men who were hanged belonged to the Iranian exile group Mujahedeen-e-Khalq.

The agency said Abul-Hassan Montazer and Vahid Bani-Amirian were convicted of “being members of a terrorist group.”

This brings to six the total number of MEK members executed since the start of the war.

Activists and rights groups say Iran routinely holds closed-door trials in which defendants are unable to challenge the accusations they face.

The Israeli military said on Saturday that its air force struck ballistic and and anti-aircraft missile storage sites in Tehran.

It said the strikes a day earlier included weapons manufacture sites as well as military research and development facilities in the Iranian capital.

It said the strikes are part of an ongoing phase to increase damage to Iran's “core systems and foundations.”

Authorities in Dubai said the facades of two buildings were damaged by debris from intercepted drones, including one belonging to U.S. tech firm Oracle. No injuries were reported.

Iran’s Revolutionary Guard has threatened to attack Oracle and 17 other U.S. companies after accusing them of being involved in “terrorist espionage” operations in Iran.

Previous Iranian drone strikes caused damage to three Amazon Web Services facilities in the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain.

As of Friday, 247 of the wounded were Army soldiers, 63 were Navy sailors, 19 were Marines and 36 were Air Force airmen, according to Pentagon data available online.

It is unclear if the data includes any of the service members involved in the downing of two combat aircraft reported Friday.

Most of the wounded — 200 — were also mid to senior enlisted troops, 85 were officers and 80 were junior enlisted service members.

The current death toll remains at 13 service members killed in combat.
