Lewis Hamilton will line up first on the grid for Sunday's Hungarian Grand Prix after taking his first pole position since the penultimate race of 2021.
Runaway championship leader Max Verstappen lines up alongside Hamilton on the front row, with the two McLarens of Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri continuing their good form by locking out row two.
Zhou Guanyu starts in a career-best fifth place, just ahead of Charles Leclerc in the first Ferrari.
But it was a miserable session for Hamilton's Mercedes teammate George Russell, who qualified only 18th after running into traffic on his final run.
Sunday's 70-lap race will start at 15:00 local time. Use our handy table below to find out when the Hungarian Grand Prix starts in your timezone.
