Both Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez have taken new power units for the Hungarian Grand Prix but they will escape grid penalties as neither are over the limit in terms of components they are allowed to use.

The Red Bulls are rather out of position this afternoon at the Hungarian Grand Prix, with Max Verstappen lining up in 10th place and Sergio Perez set to launch from 11th.

Indeed, Max revealed how a power unit issue was causing him a lack of power during Q3 of Saturday's qualifying session, and that is what left him in 10th, whilst Perez simply had a session to forget, with him out in Q2.

Both drivers will be looking to surge through the field at the Hungaroring this afternoon, then, and they have been given the boost of fresh power units in order to do so.

The Red Bull pair have taken new internal combustion engine, MGU-H, MGU-K and turbocharger components, but will still start from their middle-of-the-pack positions on the grid.

Meanwhile, for AlphaTauri, Pierre Gasly has taken a ICE, MGU-H, MGU-K, turbocharger, energy store and control electronics unit but has exceeded limits, and so has been given penalties.

Already set to start from P19, the Frenchman will now begin from the pitlane instead in a bid to keep his nose clean in the opening few corners.

George Russell leads the field away at 2pm UK time, meanwhile, as he goes in search of a first-ever Formula 1 victory.
