While in the public, the paddock, or the press room, the only topic that drives this period between two races is the accident between Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton. This weekend, the last Grand Prix before the summer break is taking place. The stakes are high, and the race is likely to take place under high tension!<\/p>\n
The drivers can hardly catch their breath. The Hungarian track is a series of technical corners. Very winding, it requires a lot of attention to not miss any trajectory, risking losing a lot of time on the timed lap exercise. In a race, a misjudgment immediately gives the opportunity to the follower to attempt an overtaking maneuver.<\/p>\n
This race takes place on the circuit named Hungaroring located in the suburbs of Budapest, the capital of the country. In the middle of August, the world of F1 often has to deal with high summer temperatures. This reinforces the energy-consuming nature of this rather atypical race. Both for men and machines.<\/p>\n
Proposed to the Formula 1 World Championship since 1986, the race has not experienced any interruptions. Fans come in large numbers, usually to support the Finnish gladiators. Ever since the arrival of the Dutch prodigy, a Dutch audience also travels there in convoy.<\/p>\n
This does not stop Lewis Hamilton’s enthusiasm. He is indeed the record holder for victories in Hungarian lands, with eight wins since his arrival in F1 in 2007.<\/p>\n
Key figures of the Hungarian Grand Prix<\/a><\/p>\n While he had managed to build up a comfortable cushion of points ahead of the British Grand Prix, the first lap accident has almost wiped out all his efforts.<\/p>\n Despite everything, its single-seater is the best on the grid. Whether in terms of chassis or engine power, Red Bull manages to better exploit its car than the star brand. On this winding circuit, the Austrian team should be able to play its cards right.<\/p>\n He will try to keep his damaged engine from Great Britain to avoid future penalties.<\/a><\/p>\n The track is winding and abrasive but many corners are taken at lower speeds than at Silverstone. Tire degradation is therefore moderate.<\/p>\n Since Silverstone, Pirelli has validated with the teams its new tire concept which is reinforced on the rear axle. There were no punctures during the previous race. So there seems to be a significant improvement from this point of view.<\/p>\n Thus the teams will have the choice between the C2, C3, and C4 compounds of this new range.<\/p>\n The final #Fit4F1<\/a> battle of the first half of the 2021 season is here! \ud83c\udded\ud83c\uddfa Max Verstappen wants his revenge<\/h2>\n
