    Clearly there is strategy involved too - Horner stating they focused too much on the race (at the expense of qualifying) is interesting on a track viewed to be more difficult to pass on

      Hungary in a sense is still old school - races are won based on sector 2 performance and tyre strategies. There are still overtakes thanks to DRS and the new aero design, but it’s still a battle against tyre degradation.

      The on-boards with telemetry were very interesting. You don’t usually see the drivers slowly modulating the throttle out of corners, but everyone was doing it to extend the tyres.
