The Hungarian GP will bring back the adrenaline-filled F1 weekends once again! After the breathtaking moment when Lewis Hamilton crossed the chequered flag to win the 104th race in his Formula 1 career, there was a break for 2 weeks. As fans have had enough time to catch their breaths and brace for more action on the race tracks, the F1 circuit will now travel to the Hungaroring for the 13th round of contest between the drivers.
Thanks to Sergio Perez’s disappointing finishes in the last few races, Red Bull’s gap to its rival teams is going down. Hence, the upcoming Hungarian Grand Prix is a crucial one for the Mexican as he needs to reinstate his team’s faith in him. Meanwhile, Mercedes’ George Russell DNF’ed at his home race last weekend while his teammate Hamilton stole the show with a win. Thus, the Briton will now want to redeem himself by scoring a top 3 spot in Hungary. Well, only time will tell if he gets a good result for Toto Wolff’s army at the end of this week. So, let’s take a look at the entire Hungarian GP 2024 schedule and also where you can watch the races.
