LIVE: 2019 Hungarian Grand Prix - Hamilton wins the Hungarian GP

So. Close.

We rolled the dice but it didn't quite pay off this afternoon...

Big hand to @SChecoPerez for a brave drive out there today - and to @lance_stroll for pushing right to the very end!

Hamilton is told that at the end of the race Verstappen will have zero rubber.

Hamilton told:"Verstappen 19.5"
Hamilton:"19.5??"
Bonno:"Affirm. He's now in free air and he's turned up the PU. So now that forecast has turned to where we catch him on the final lap" #HungarianGP #F1
