Voted for Lewis. If what Mercedes says about unlocking the pace of the car and finding advantage is true, I expect him to qualify on pole and lead from there. Passing is hard here unless rain is thrown into the mix like my all-time favorite Hungarian Grand Prix from 2006.

Voted Lewis as well. Could be fun if it rains a bit.

Robert Kubica to test the Renault in Hungary. I'm hoping the test goes well and Renault moves him into one of their cars

Friday Practice 1 - Ricciardo sets the pace. McLarens looking good
F1 Racing News - Ricciardo tops opening Hungary practice

Friday Practice 2 - RedBull and Ricciardo yet again. Both McLarens in the top 10
F1 Racing News - Ricciardo fast again in second Hungary practice

Voted Vettel.

WAG- McLaren will score points, HAAS will as well, and only 1 Mercedes AMG will finish. DiResta (filling in for Massa) will finish in the top 15.

Good race for me as both McLarens finished in the points. I just wish the feed showed more of Alonso and Vandoorne although the drama at the front was engaging too. Props to Vettel and Ferrari for their 1 - 2 finish and great drives from both Mercedes drivers. I felt real bad for Ricciardo but he was gracious in his interview after the incident as was Max who promptly apologized for taking his team mate out.

Alas now we go into the long summer break and the race at Spa is about a month away. Will probably give me time to catch up on all the other races I've recorded.
