Good afternoon, all, and welcome to our LIVE coverage of the Hungarian Grand Prix. Well, it's beyond a joke for Lewis Hamilton now; after brake problems in practice and an engine fire in qualifying, he starts from the pit lane. That comes after last weekend's disappointment in Germany, where he battled through the grid to finish third after brake issues in qualifying.

What a terrific afternoon of racing that was, and a well-deserved victory for Red Bull's Daniel Ricciardo, who attacked bravely and with confidence. It's good to see Fernando Alonso on the podium after a great drive on very little tyre; and Lewis Hamilton should be very pleased with third place after starting from the pit lane. One suspects, however, that the Mercedes camp will not be a happy place to be over the next few weeks as they work to solve these problems that dogged both their drivers this weekend. Thanks for joining me this afternoon!

The trio of drivers walk out on to the podium, and I'm fairly sure Ricciardo hasn't stopped beaming since he passed the chequered flag. Time for the Australian national anthem.
-
Ricciardo leaps on to his car, flexes his muscles and beats his chest in maximum macho glee.
-
"Nice work, Lewis, that was one hell of a recovery from the pit lane," his team praise him.

Christian Horner says, "It was an incredible drive from Daniel. I can't say anything high enough for him."
-
Ricciardo is laughing and cheering over the radio. "Amazing, you deserve that!" his team tell him. He certainly does. Wonderful driving.
-
That's his second Grand Prix win, and Alonso does brilliantly to take second on practically no tyres whatsoever, with Hamilton doing equally brilliantly to take third after that pit lane start.

Daniel Ricciardo wins the Hungarian Grand Prix!
70/70
Into the final lap, and Ricciardo is five seconds ahead of Alonso.
-
Hamilton also complains that his tyres have no grip either. Goodness, we have some disgruntled Mercedes drivers this afternoon.
69/70
Hamilton can't get past Alonso, who's struggling with those worn tyres.
-
Ricciardo will need to extend that lead because the quick-lapping Rosberg is now joining the chasing pack, just two seconds behind Hamilton now.
68/70
Alonso can do nothing to hold off Daniel Ricciardo! What terrific driving from the Red Bull.
-
And Ricciardo has done it! He takes Hamilton, moving wide at the turn, and the Red Bull team leap out of their seats.
67/70
Hamilton's being told to adjust his steering wheel settings to hold off Ricciardo in turn. What an exciting end to this race!
66/70
This is a late and impressive surge from Rosberg, taking two and a half seconds off Ricciardo's advantage every lap.
65/70
Ricciardo tries to go round the outside of Hamilton but is rebuffed - and Rosberg's team tell him to keep up the pace and he'll catch the leaders by the last lap.
64/70
Now, Nico Rosberg, still in fourth, is lapping more quickly than Daniel Ricciardo. He still trails by 14 seconds - is there any way he can close that gap?
63/70
Hamilton and Ricciardo have Fernando Alonso in their sights now, and he's rattled - so much so that he goes bouncing across the bumps on the chicane.
62/70
"We're good on fuel," Hamilton is reassured.
