F1 Race Recap: Hamilton Wins a Heater in Hungary

August 6, 2018   TIBCO Spotfire
M167649 960x602 F1 Race Recap: Hamilton Wins a Heater in Hungary

With the 2018 F1 season reaching its midpoint, ten teams and twenty drivers headed to Budapest for the final race before the summer break. A fair amount of rain made for a tricky qualifying performance, with Lewis Hamilton and Valtteri Bottas securing a 1-2 lockout of the grid despite the slick conditions, with both Ferrari drivers hot on their heels in 3-4.

As race day arrived, the track temperature was scorching.

Known for its short track and twisting turns, the Hungaroring presents few opportunities for overtakes. All eyes were on Hamilton and Bottas as the drivers took their positions on the grid.

LIGHTS OUT: Great start from the boys! Lewis leads away in P1, Valtteri defending beautifully to keep the Ferraris back! 🇭🇺 #HungarianGP

With quick starts from both drivers, they were able to maintain their positions through turn one and kept the Ferraris at bay. As Bottas tussled with Kimi Raikkonen, Hamilton began putting serious distance between his car and the rest of the pack early in the race. With a blistering-hot track, pit stops and tire selection became even more critical.

As the laps passed by, Hamilton appeared downright unstoppable as the Ferraris worked together to break past Bottas. Vettel was able to sneak past, but not without some contact, damaging Bottas’s front wing.

ARGHHHH! VET and VB clatter together into Turn 2! 😩

Valtteri has damage! #HungarianGP 🇭🇺 #F1

With the loss of downforce resulting from the damage, Bottas wasn’t able to sustain his ferocious pace and dropped back to P5.

But even with Bottas behind them, the Ferraris were no match for Hamilton’s staggering pace and growing lead. Hamilton crossed the line, claiming his sixth Hungarian Grand Prix title.
