Slow

We knew it was going to be a slow start to proceedings, but thankfully things livened up for the Free Practice sessions in Hungary. Listen to F1 Digest for a completely rundown of the action.

Free Practice 1

No action for 30 minutes, but once it got started there were some interesting things to note. Ferrari seemed to have the edge on McLaren, but how much of that was true pace and how much setup? Also, Vettel broke down.

Free Practice 2

This time round it was McLaren working their magic to take the lead, with Piquet in a ridiculous second. Plenty of tyre work, and also, Vettel broke down.

Conclusions

Some new aero updates to several of the cars were being evaluated today, so we get thoughts on those, whilst some drivers are keeping quiet about how they feel.
