Colapinto crashes during Pirelli tyre test in Hungary

Several F1 teams remained at the Hungaroring for crucial 2026 Pirelli tyre testing, which saw a minor incident involving Alpine's Franco Colapinto. During the second morning of the post-Hungarian Grand Prix test, Colapinto had an off at Turn 11, briefly halting his session. Alpine confirmed he was "okay" after medical checks. The two-day test, also featuring McLaren, Ferrari, and Racing Bulls, is vital for developing 2026 tyre constructions and prototype compounds. Other notable drivers participating include Lando Norris, Liam Lawson, Charles Leclerc, and Pierre Gasly, as teams gather critical data for the sport's future regulations.
