    On The Grid, your global motorsport roundup with Tiff Needell and Paul Woodman. We look back at the headlines in Hungary where Oscar Piastri took his maiden F1 win to join fellow Australian's, Daniel Ricciardo, Mark Webber, Jack Brabham and Alan Jones on the top step of the podium. But was the headline about McLaren's strategy and drover orders, of the petulance of Max Verstappen towards his team and in particular his race engineer, Gianpiero Lambiase. Has Lando Norris become too big for hit boots? Did Lewis or Max deserve a penalty for their crash together? Finnish driver Kalle Rovanperä cruises to victory in Latvia in WRC but should the draw be different in terms of the road sweeping? There was a huge crash in Toronto for Indycar on the amazing city circuit. Kyle Larson kisses the Indianapolis bricks at what he thinks is the most important race in the world, which begs the question... What is the most famous motor race in the world? Monaco / Le Mans / Indy 500 / Or something else? Superbike sweeps for Razgatlioglu and Vickers in WSB And Wehrlein takes electrifying title in Formula E in London for Porsche, with an unhappy Jaguar team.
