Isack Hadjar frustrated after sixth place at Hungarian Grand Prix

Isack Hadjar Hungarian Grand Prix RB22 medium tyre issue Red Bull strategy

French driver Isack Hadjar finished sixth at the 2026 Hungarian Grand Prix, achieving his seventh consecutive top‑six result. He praised the RB22’s overall pace but was upset by a poor first stint on medium tyres that left him about 11 seconds behind the car ahead.

Hadjar said the early slowdown cost a chance to fight Ferraris for fourth or fifth place. Red Bull kept him on track longer to influence Max Verstappen’s rivals, a tactic he understood and complied with without causing any incident.
