Heads up for part-time viewers... wet conditions at Hungary plus a mixed grid could equal lots of excitement!

Verstappen's fucked it before he even got it around to the grid.

Yeah - looks like it may just be a steering arm- they might just get away with this... amazing!

Another Schumacher record equalled. I have a feeling the only one left standing by the end of the season will be pole/win/fastest lap in the same race (like Hamilton did today) as Schumacher has four or five more of those.

If someone had said to me back in 2006 that Schumacher would be eclipsed in just 15 years I'd have laughed in their face, but it looks more likely than not now.

I remember thinking the same back then. I've also thought the same about Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi as well as the Federer/Nadal/Djokovic. Everyone else just seems so far behind in terms of accolades.

Yeah - he's really turning a few heads, quite a character! I really enjoyed his dice with Leclerc during the race - I've seen the 2 of them streaming coop play on COD during the break and they get along really well - loads of respect and well-deserved.

Certainly going well so far, lets see if he'll eventually move to Monaco which is something I loathe.

Yeah, and of an era, but I do see that James Matthews will be on the board and he's an ex-racer (husband of Pippa MIddleton too)....

I'm also pretty impressed with how close Bottas managed to push him. Midfield is gonna be a wild ride tomorrow (y)

Although most times not quite enough to matter, it is simply going to come down to which one of them gets away better from pole.

Agreed - plus how brave they are with cold tyres and brakes on lap 1.... I think they are using DAS to decent effect at this circuit, by the way....

Great win for Gasly but what a dumb mistake from Mercedes to box Hamilton when the pit lane was closed. You could understand that maybe he didn't notice the boards on the far side of the track but the guys on the pit wall should've 100% been aware. He did well to get back up to 7th so his run of points finishes continues.
