BUDAPEST, Hungary— Formula One champion Lewis Hamilton posted the fastest time Friday in the first practice for the Hungarian Grand Prix.<\/p>\n

Lance Stroll was fourth for Racing Point, which uses Mercedes engines.<\/p>\n
Ferrari again lacked pace, with Sebastian Vettel and Charles Leclerc both more than one second behind Hamilton’s leading time.<\/p>\n
There is a second practice later Friday.<\/p>\n
The Mercedes drivers have won one race each from pole position this season. Bottas won the season-opening Austrian GP and Hamilton clinched the Styrian GP in Austria last Sunday for his 85th F1 win.<\/p>\n
