The Grand Prix of Hungary is the only grand prix race held in Eastern Europe. The Hungaroring serves as the stage for this race, set on a hill overlooking the suburbs about 20km outside Budapest. Known as a low-speed course, the Hungaroring is notoriously difficult for overtaking, which means qualifying figures heavily in the race final. This is the second slowest course on the F1 World Championship series, next to the Grand Prix of Monaco. As always, the race promises to be a long, tough battle, with every team taking measures to combat the mid-summer heat.
