Formula 1 heads to Budapest for the final round before the summer break with sky-high tension between Mercedes and Red Bull following controversy at Silverstone.
Max Verstappen held onto his lead in the Drivers' Championship, despite his retirement at the British Grand Prix, but his advantage over Lewis Hamilton is just eight points.
Red Bull are only four points ahead of Mercedes in the Constructors' Standings but are expected to be strong at the Hungaroring this weekend.
Ferrari have showed great pace and the circuit characteristics could play into their hands so don't be surprised if they cause an upset as Charles Leclerc did in Monaco and Azerbaijan.
Lando Norris will look to continue his remarkable 2021 campaign whilst AlphaTauri are hoping to bounce back from a disappointing event at Silverstone.
