It took just over two minutes for the Hungarian Grand Prix weekend to come to life, with under pressure Red Bull driver Sergio Perez crashing just half-a-lap into free practice one.
The Mexican's crash put him out of the session, which after being red flagged was soon followed by rain showers hitting the track - halting any chances of dry running.
Carlos Sainz was also caught out by the conditions after spinning off the circuit up the hill on the exit of turn three, in a session where the track gradually got quicker as the rain eased up - and Mercedes' George Russell ended up on top.
FP2 was a far calmer session but produced a jumbled order with Charles Leclerc going fastest for Ferrari as teams varied their practice routines after the troubled first session.
