All Sets for HUNGARIAN Grand Prix
TEAMCAR - The Hungarian Grand Prix follows hot on the heels of Germany and is the last race before the three week summer break and testing ban. The championship battles are getting closer every race, both the drivers' and constructors' titles, and currently Ferrari has the upper hand on track, if not in the points. But can Renault put a damper on the Scuderia charge?The Hungaroring is a slow, twisty, dusty circuit that rarely produces interesting races, at least from a spectator's point of view. It's been compared to Monaco but only characteristically -- it can hardly be said to have any of Monaco's glamour and atmosphere -- as it has the reputation of being almost impossible to overtake on.
Ferrari's current form looks hard to beat: three straight wins in a row for Michael Schumacher and Felipe Massa on the podium in the last three races is impressive. Some people took it for granted in previous years that Ferrari would be impressive but last season the reds' competitiveness bit the dust. Now Schumacher is back in the title fight.
Championship leader Fernando Alonso had a dismal time in Germany and lost six points to Michael -- while Ferrari dominated, Renault suffered blistering tyres and although the absence of the mass damper device was played down by the team, it contributed to the lack of performance. The device will be back in Budapest but will Renault's form be back?
