Verstappen recovers from pre-race crash to score second

Max Verstappen labelled his runner-up position at the Hungarian Grand Prix as “like a victory” and praised his Red Bull mechanics in the wake of his pre-race crash. Wet weather struck the Hungaroring during the build-up to the race and Verstappen lost control of his RB16 en route to the grid at Turn 12.
