However, as Norris has a better chance of winning the driver’s championship, he initially refused the calls from the pit.
However, in the 68th lap, he eventually allowed the Australian to pass and take first place in Hungary.
This left Norris to settle for second place on the podium in a one-two for McLaren.
Lewis Hamilton also had an eventful race as he collided with Red Bull’s Max Verstappen during the 63rd lap.
The Mercedes driver still managed to claim the final podium spot, while Verstappen dropped to finish 4th.
