Aston Martin team principal Adrian Newey said the team’s upgraded car has shown early “promising” results despite Lance Stroll’s running being curtailed in first practice at the Hungarian Grand Prix. Newey said: "Very early days in terms of understanding the new package. Provisional results are promising. It's only part of the package. We will have some more steps in Zandvoort, Monza and Baku, so it is the first part of our planned upgrade. Very short on parts so being careful with it and trying to learn all about it."


Lewis Hamilton ensured Ferrari topped both of Friday's practice sessions, ending the day almost half a second faster than any of the team’s rivals.
