It’s the Hungarian Grand Prix this weekend as round 13 of the 2024 Formula 1 season takes place at the Hungaroring near Budapest.

Last time out, Lewis Hamilton won his first grand prix since 2021, holding off championship leader Max Verstappen in a thrilling wet-dry British Grand Prix.

Hamilton’s victory – his 104th in F1 – made it two wins in a row for Mercedes after George Russell triumphed in Austria.

McLaren’s Lando Norris was third at Silverstone, while Russell had to retire because of a water system problem.

Verstappen leads the drivers’ championship by 84 points from Norris.
