Lewis Hamilton’s championship dreams hit a bump as he’s slapped with a three-place grid penalty at the Hungarian Grand Prix for impeding Oscar Piastri during qualifying — a move that forced Piastri to abandon his lap. Hamilton claimed he didn’t get the radio warning in time and Piastri wasn’t visible in his mirrors, but stewards sided with Piastri, calling the maneuver “pretty bad.” Ferrari’s Fred Vasseur admitted the team failed to warn Hamilton in time, sealing Hamilton’s drop from P2 to P5 — handing Leclerc, Antonelli, and Piastri each a spot boost. Antonelli’s own yellow flag investigation still hangs in the balance, but Hamilton’s penalty is final — a costly misstep for the seven-time champ, especially with his team owning the communication failure.
