AND MERCEDES PROMISES A SHOW AT THE START
And in contrast to Red Bull, Toto Wolff assured that the start will be “fun” between Hamilton and Verstappen.
RED BULL, WORRIED ABOUT WHAT MAY HAPPEN AT THE START
Although the relationship has improved slightly, the clashes between Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton are still very present. And with both going out together on the front line again, Red Bull sent a ‘little message’.
LEWIS HAMILTON, THRILLED WITH HIS POLE
33 Grand Prix had Lewis Hamilton without making a pole. From Saudi Arabia 2021. The Briton, despite adding his 104th pole position in Hungary, felt the first position so much that he went so far as to affirm that he felt it as if it were the first.
LEWIS HAMILTON SPEAKS
“Yesterday I was lost for words. The emotion was on the surface. I have always liked this track and doing pole position as I did, being the last to arrive, meant a lot. Red Bull is half a second faster than us in the race, so it will surely pass easily for us. Still we will see, “explains the Briton in the Drivers Parade.
MERCEDES, FROM RAGE TO EMOTION
Bittersweet taste yesterday for Mercedes. George Russell was left out in Q1, but Lewis Hamilton took the Germans’ first pole position this season. Who was going to tell Toto Wolff while he threw a punch at the table with the elimination of ’63’.
DANIEL RICCIARDO SPEAKS
“I’ve been to a few races this season, but today is the first time that I’m not having ice cream or something at this hour. I’m happy with what happened yesterday, I have to keep feeling the car and learning. I haven’t done very long runs yet, but I’m really looking forward to it.”
CHARLES LECLERC SPEAKS
“We have a lot of questions for today. What is certain is that tire management will be key. Many teams are going very fast and it will be a very difficult race. A podium would be very optimistic, if we gain a couple of positions I would be very happy.”
MAX VERSTAPPEN SPEAKS
“I feel very good for today. It doesn’t all depend on the first lap, two stops are expected so it will be a long race. Normally we are doing very well in the race, but I expect a good battle.”
FERNANDO ALONSO SPEAKS
“It will be difficult because it is not easy to overtake here. The top 5 is the maximum we can reach. I have memories of 20 years ago and people are very enthusiastic about me and I can see it,” he explained in the Drivers Parade.
LANDO NORRIS SPEAKS
“Yesterday was a good day, but as a driver I am disappointed because I know I could have done better. I want to start well and we have a chance on the first lap. We have to be calm because we want to score a lot of points with both drivers”, explained the Briton in the Drivers Parade.
ALONSO TAKES ON THE NEW REALITY OF ASTON MARTIN
DOES FERNANDO ALONSO LIKE THE NEW FORMAT?
Hungary’s qualification was peculiar since a different format was released for the first time and is in testing. In each session they were forced to set up a compound and Fernando Alonso was very critical of it.
FERNANDO ALONSO, THE ONLY DRIVER WHO HAS BEEN IN ALL Q3
Despite the disappointment, the elimination of Carlos Sainz in Q2 allowed Fernando Alonso to be the only driver this season who has been in all Q3 including sprint qualifying.
FERNANDO ALONSO AND A DISAPPOINTMENT IN HUNGARY
By characteristics (and also by what they affirmed from the British team) Aston Martin had to do well in the Hungaroring circuit. However, the reality was different in classification. Lance Stroll was left out again in Q2 and Fernando Alonso could only be eighth.
