Hungarian Grand Prix preview
1. The summer break arrives
This is the last chance for drivers and teams to rack up points before the summer break. An even healthier cushion for Max Verstappen could see him effectively wrap up the title before August.
2. Mercedes's consistency
Mercedes is displaying remarkable consistency in 2022. George Russell is yet to finish outside of the top five this season, barring a DNF at Silverstone. Lewis Hamilton has finished on the podium in his last four outings.
3. Ferrari's inconsistency
Quite the contrast to Mercedes, Charles Leclerc recorded his third DNF of the campaign. Added to Carlos Sainz's four DNFs, it doesn't make for good reading for Ferrari. A blend of technical unreliability, driver error and sheer bad luck have contributed to Ferrari sliding out of contention.
