Oscar Piastri clinched his first Formula One victory at the 2024 Hungarian Grand Prix, leading a McLaren one-two finish. Starting from second position, Piastri quickly overtook pole-sitter and teammate Lando Norris to take the lead. Although Norris initially regained the lead after a pit-stop strategy, team orders directed him to allow Piastri to pass, solidifying Piastri's win.

Lewis Hamilton finished third, marking his 200th career podium. Charles Leclerc and Max Verstappen completed the top five, with Verstappen extending his winless streak to three consecutive races. Despite Norris's strong performance and initial lead, team strategy played a crucial role in McLaren's decision, resulting in a significant career milestone for Piastri.
