Without a doubt we can say that the form McLaren raises. Traditional team from Woking is the fourth power of the current season Formula 1. The second most successful team in the history of the royal motorsport class scored 82 points by the summer break. He's in the racing championship Carlos Sainz the best outside the counterparts of the first three teams. Madrid is seventh at the time, with 58 points. With that behind another racer Red Bulla Pierre Gasly it is only five points behind. Also Lando Norris he is fighting brilliantly in his inaugural Formula 1 season, as he is in tenth place with 24 points and is thus the best ranked rookie.
After two five places in a row Carlos Sainz says: “The track obviously fit our race car brilliantly, more than we expected. We were able to overtake, on soft tires we could have been on the track longer than we thought. I was even told by radio that in the last five to ten laps of the first segment of the race I was constantly faster than the Ferrari racers. We are constantly making progress in terms of tire management."
The Spaniard continues: “I was able to attack at will and it was also not hard for me to control Gasly at the end of the race. If you have a good race car, then this is child's play. In Hungary, everything fit - the speed of the car, the tires, the strategy, the stops in the pits."
Son of a rally legend Carlos Sainz the elder adds: "These race cars have become so fast that the Hungaroring can no longer be categorized as a slow track, even though we raced here with the wings placed vertically. We noticed that we are above average on tracks with a fairly new asphalt surface. At the same time, we did not miss the fact that we arrived at the finish line with a lap behind. This means that there is still a lot of work ahead of us. However, I believe we need to be very happy with the first half of the season and embark on the remaining nine races with a great deal of confidence."
