HIGHLIGHTS: 2018 Hungarian Grand Prix.
Vettel and Raikkonen finished one and two respectively in 2017 with Hamilton finishing fourth after Sebastian Vettel will be looking to repeat 2017 victory and narrow the gap on Lewis HamiltonThe race takes place on Sunday 29th July at 2:10pm (BST).You can follow Sportsmail live commentary of the Hungarian Grand Prix 2018 race for the latest updates, lap times, positions and retirements.The track used for Hungarian Grand Prix is called the Hungaroring. In response, on lap 38, Mercedes gave Bottas permission to run a very aggressive engine mode for two laps. This had got the gap over Bottas out to 23sec, comfortably enough to have emerged ahead if he’d stopped then. But, for now, Bottas was continuing in his admirable team role, fending off the Ferrari on his old tyres for lap after lap.The lap before Vettel’s solitary stop, fourth place Räikkönen had been in for a second stop to replace those early-fitted softs. “Yes, I went in the wrong direction on Friday and wasn’t happy with the balance so into Saturday I made a big change.” The car was now a little more understeery than Hamilton would ideally have liked, but that was keeping the rear ultrasofts in shape for longer.So Ferrari wanted to run Vettel as long as possible, Mercedes was trying to do the same with Hamilton – and the tyres were taking it. It all left him only 12The Haas VF-18s were giving the Spec 3 Ferrari motor its debut, but this wasn’t a track where either motor or chassis would be seen to best advantage. Verstappen was all for continuing on the lap in order to break the rest of the engine, but was dissuaded from doing so by his engineer. “It felt like he stole my wallet,” related an irked Alonso later. In that first phase, Räikkönen was the fastest, revelling in a Ferrari that is much more driveable in the wet than previously.

A further complication was the free tyre choice because of the rain of qualifying.From Mercedes’ perspective, should it split its strategies between the soft and the ultrasoft? Turkish Grand Prix: Sebastian Vettel's 2011 pole lap. Sainz, together with team-mate Hülkenberg and both McLarens, had started on the soft.
A dramatic session ensued as the drivers were forced into quick tyre strategy decisions to adapt to the ever-worsening conditions. Both strategies worked, given a Renault and a Toro Rosso that were nicely balanced.Sainz habitually stars in such conditions – he’d been second only to Vettel on the inters surface of Q2 – and it was a timely reminder of his skills. The definitive report on the 2018 Hungarian F1 Grand Prix, by Grand Prix editor Mark Hughes.
The Hungaroring is a narrow, winding, ribbon of tarmac near Budapest.
“Until the rain came we were just trying to do our best to be as close to them as possible,” said Hamilton. Let Cyril [Abiteboul] come up with the excuses.”There was a brief VSC as the inert Red Bull was pulled through a gap in the barriers, but it was quickly rescinded and Romain Grosjean was quicker on the draw than Fernando Alonso – jumping him into Turn 2, to take 11th.
A few seconds earlier, Bottas had knocked the provisional polesitter from the first runs, Kimi Räikkönen, down a place – and Hamilton leapfrogged them both.Hamilton had been rescued again by the rain, just six days after Hockenheim. Ferrari knew what it was going to do to prevent Bottas from allowing Hamilton to build up too much of a lead. He went quickest in Q2 by shrewdly judging that he needed to be straight on intermediates as the rest of the field went out in a vain attempt at finding one slick-tyred lap. Stoffel finished his second run just as the track conditions were further improving and the cars around him were finding drier lines. Motorsport Images Author. 30:46 Now Playing.

The sister car of Ericsson had hit Ricciardo’s left-front pretty hard at Turn 1 and would be in soon enough for a new front wing. Hungarian Grand Prix 2018 qualifying results from Budapest Sat, July 28, 2018 Express Sport runs through the qualifying results for the 2018 Hungarian Grand Prix… “It seems at the moment that this year’s car struggles a bit in the wet and we need to look into why it is different to last year’s,” said Verstappen.“We have already experienced that we struggle to get heat into the tyres and today that really showed.
The final free practice before today’s qualifying session was rendered unrepresentative since it took place in dry and sunny conditions. His role now was to try to stay ahead of Vettel after the latter had stopped – but that looked a tall order… the Ferrari was faster.With Bottas out the way, Vettel upped his pace and stabilised the gap to Hamilton at around 8.5sec.
But now this opportunity was presenting itself.
Fernando and Stoffel ran through their specific run programmes – Stoffel’s session halted temporarily for a planned floor change – and the pair finished in 14th and 17th respectively.Thirty minutes before qualifying, the heavens opened and storms began rumbling, leading to a last-minute change in strategy for everyone in the pit-lane.
