Oscar Piastri: Watch the stunning moment McLaren star shocks Lando Norris and Max Verstappen to lead the Hungarian Grand Prix

Oscar Piastri sprung the mother of all shocks to gazump Lando Norris and Max Verstappen to take the lead of the Hungarian Grand Prix.

In a stunning move that once again proved the Australian's credentials as a world champion of the future, the 22-year-old held his nerve as he went wheel-to-wheel in a three-way race to the first corner at lights out in Budapest.

Occupying the inside line thanks to his P2 qualifying position in Saturday's shootout, Piastri edged his nose in front of McLaren teammate Norris, forcing the Briton to go wide, pushing Verstappen off the track as a result.

Verstappen returned to the track in second position and as the Melbournian stretched his legs out in front, Norris and the Dutchman spent the following laps squabbling over the incident - with the Red Bull ace forced to hand it back.

Piastri has enjoyed a strong second season with the Papaya, albeit failing to come away with a maiden Grand Prix victory his drives have been worthy of.

He could break that duck in Hungary this weekend, barring an unfortunate sequence of events that would throw the race wide open. 

Norris, the pole sitter for Sunday's proceedings, expressed full confidence that he could convert his front row start into a win before lights out.

'I am expecting to win, and if I don't it hasn't been a good day,' he said. 'The car is doing well, I am driving well, so it is obvious what the aim is.'
