Event Statistics


Description
The 2007 Hungarian Grand Prix was won by McLaren's Lewis Hamilton, who led from start to finish to claim the third victory of his debut season. He narrowly fended off Ferrari's Kimi Räikkönen by just 0.720 seconds, while BMW Sauber's Nick Heidfeld completed the podium in third.
However, the event is primarily remembered for an explosive qualifying controversy that triggered the total implosion of the Hamilton–Alonso partnership at McLaren.
The Broken Agreement: Hamilton disobeyed a pre-arranged team order to let Alonso pass him on track to gain a fuel-burning track advantage.
The Pit Box Retaliation: Seeking payback, Alonso deliberately held his car in the McLaren pit box for an extra 10 seconds after being given the green light to leave by the lollipop man.
The Clock Runs Out: Hamilton was trapped directly behind Alonso in the pit lane. By the time Alonso finally moved and Hamilton received his tyre change, the rookie missed crossing the start-finish line to log his final flying lap by just four seconds.
