    Details of the circuit:
    First Grand Prix | 1986
    Number of Laps | 70
    Circuit Length | 4.381km
    Race Distance | 306.63 km
    Lap Record | 1:19.071 Michael Schumacher (2004)

    When was the track built?
    Work began on the Hungaroring in 1985, and the track was race-ready just nine months later. The Hungarian government had originally considered reviving the old Nepliget park circuit in Budapest in a bid to host Formula 1 in the country, but in the end decided to create a purpose-built facility instead.

    When was its first Grand Prix?
    The year was 1986. Nelson Piquet won the first F1 race around the Hungaroring, famously slithering his Williams around the outside of Ayrton Senna’s Lotus to take the lead.

    Schedule:
    Friday – 10:00 to 11:30 – Free Practice 1
    Friday – 14:00 to 15:30 – Free Practice 2
    Saturday – 11:00 to 12:00 – Free Practice 3
    Saturday – 14:00 to 15:00 – Qualifying
    Sunday – 14:10 to 16:10 – Race

    I too doubt it's going to be the thrill fest that we've been treated to this past few weeks but it might be intriguing rather than exhilarating, which is still fine.
    One for a highlights reel I think.
    6:30 Saturday for qualifying, 7:00 Sunday for the race.

    Hopefully not,
    Supposed to rain for most of the weekend.
    Fingers crossed we will have a spiced up race like last week.

    Williams (well, Russell) look at lot closer to the pack as well, which is nice to see. Hopefully that form moves into qualifying.

    Russell knocked out in Q1 again but faster than both Racing Points, Daniel Ricciardo in the Renault and his teammate. Kubica was 1.3 seconds slower!

    Looking at the cutoff for Q3 I think Gasly has to go again, they'll have to send him out on softs.
