Hungarian GP 2018

Lewis Hamilton is once again leading the world championship after Vettel’s crash in the rainy Hockenheim. Seb must win more points than his title rival if he wants to stay in contention of the drivers championship. However, the upcoming GP is held on the narrow and twisty Hungaroring; a circuit where the Red Bulls are expected to have the advantage just like they did in Monaco earlier this season.

The model predicts that Hamilton will qualify 1st and win the race. Still, I think Daniel or Max should maximize this opportunity in a race track that suits their car’s characteristics. Let’s find out whether Red Bull is still the team to beat in such places or whether the progress made by the Ferraris is capable of giving Seb the win in this race.
