On the eve of the Hungarian F1 GP , Ferrari aimed to raise its hopes in the world championship pilots. Instead, Max Verstappen , with a great victory, takes another step towards the world title. For the Dutchman, a race really to be framed thinking that he had only started tenth due to engine problems in qualifying. But thanks to a perfect machine and a right strategy, Verstappen & egrave; succeeded in the enterprise not only to return to the positions that matter but also to win in ease. Not even a spin on the penultimate lap undermined his concentration.
For the Ferrari that was aiming for a great result, the GP of Hungary was a must. closed with so many disappointments. Sainz finished only fourth and Leclerc even sixth . Really opaque performance considering, however, the value that the car has shown so far. In cool temperatures, the F1-75 proved to be unable to keep up not only with Red Bull but also with Mercedes. In addition, the strategy in the pits & egrave; was once again wrong.

To worry c & # 39; & egrave; also the return of the Mercedes which seems to be recovering speed; GP after GP. In Hungary, in qualifying, George Russell got pole, and then finished third behind his teammate Hamilton in the race much more; concrete.
In short, at the end of this race, the alarm sounds at Ferrari. The machine seems to have lost competitiveness; and the strategies in the pits still do not go. The drivers' championship, even if the season is; still very long, it seems almost definitively compromised given that Verstappen has 80 points ahead of Leclerc. Perez, who finished fifth, & egrave; just 5 lengths from the Monegasque. And speaking of the constructors' championship, Red Bull can & ograve; count on nearly 100 points ahead of Ferrari which, on the other hand, is just 30 points ahead of Mercedes.
