Hungary 2009 - Free Practice 1 - Teams and drivers face higher temperatures at the Hungaroring

Published by Christine

Hungary is not always the most popular circuit on the calendar, but this is what we are faced with, so we might as well make the most of it.

Weather update

It's supposed to be nice and hot today, which will make a change from the temperatures and conditions we've seen at recent races. It's also supposed to continue to be good throughout the weekend as well.

One to watch

The Brawn team are hoping that the high temperatures will work better for them, and Bridgestone have confirmed they are bringing their stickiest tyres to the race, so expect to see Jenson and Rubens flying around the Hungaroring.

Predictions please

Will we see another mix up in the order, or will it revert to the beginning of the season? Will Red Bull be able to continue their good form? How will Alguersuari do in his first official session? Will anyone crash?
