Hungary is a track that negates power differences, basically if Ferrari can´t compete there... Uh Oh.
Ferrari have no issue with power, they have an issue with high speed downforce.
It's McLaren you can expect to compete better at Hungary (until they blow up again).
Not at all, they were matching the times of Bottas on S2 at Silverstone for example. I think their issue is more about braking stability and also medium/low speed parts (sector one) and their traction is a problem since their battle with Red Bull. But they have great mechanical grip and a nice aero setup I think.
Thus, Hungary will be a good track for them were they can probably match the Merc pace (despite the fact that it's Hamilton's favorite track), because only the S3 will be a problem for them, and furthermore it will be hot, the Ferrari seems better under these condition than the Merc. Merc as we've seen this week end is better under fresh condition.
