Lewis Hamilton the Mercedes Formula One driver needs a win to cut into teammate Nico Rosberg’s 14-point championship lead after 10 of the 19 races and Hungary offers the perfect opportunity.
Hamilton has won there four times in the last seven seasons, including the last two, and the Briton shares the record for victories at the slow and twisty Hungaroring circuit with Michael Schumacher.
Rosberg’s best result at the circuit, outside Budapest, remains a fourth place with Williams in 2009.
