2024 Hungarian Grand Prix - Hungaroring, July 19 - 21

Whilst it’s a max DF track isn’t the modern take that this is a medium speed circuit rather than a slow speed, with these cars?

IF that rang true….Who does that suit?

I kinda thought Ferrari would go well here.

That is accurate. With these cars, it's mostly a medium speed corner-dominated circuit. In recent years, Mercedes have been very quick here (particularly over a single lap), even with some of their weaker "ground effect" era cars.

I expect Ferrari to be stronger here than they were in Silverstone, but we have to see what their updates bring.

In theory, yes. They seem to have the least tyre deg. but it remains to be seen if their new floor will bring them back to life. I'd just say, the hotter, the worse for RBR and the better for everyone else.

Not for Merc it isn’t.

Crowdstrike outage has affected the machines of Merc, Mclaren, AM and Williams, basically Merc and all the teams they supply an engine to. Its not a hack but an update gone wrong

Looks like quali tomorrow will be in cooler conditions with much lower track temperatures.

Early days, but that time from Verstappen on used softs is not great for the other teams…

[Sieper]

Lets see what Max has to say. It was later though and the evolution was picking up. But used as you say, he had to abort the 1st hotlap due to the VSC.

[Dunlay]

Seems like Ferrari has got this on car pace! You can always count on their strategy though.
