2020 Hungarian GP preview

The Burning Questions

Can Ferrari make some progress this weekend (and maybe not immediately crash into one another)?

Will Lewis Hamilton match Michael Schumacher’s record for the number of wins at one GP with an 8th triumph in Hungary?

How will Racing Point respond to the protest about their car?

Will the interview requested by Sebastian Vettel (with Martin Brundle) prove to be a major announcement?

With more thunderstorms forecast, could it be another wet and wild weekend?

The Quotes

Sebastian Vettel | “The truth is that I don’t have a contract to sign, I haven’t signed anything for next year. It’s not that close, as you think.”

Sergio Pérez | “I’m with the team, and as far as I know I have a contract. We will see what happens in the next weeks, but from my point of view I’ve got a contract with the team and I fully believe in the future of the team.”

Lewis Hamilton | “I am not saying that everyone is going to take a knee, but over time as we get to talk about it more often I would like to think we will all be together in the understanding of it.”

Jenson Button | “[Fernando Alonso] is at the top of his game still and I think it’s great that the two-time world champion is going to be racing back in Formula 1. He is a very fiery character and we don’t really know how it’s going to end up with Renault, but I need to congratulate them for bringing him back to Formula 1.
