Going into the Hungaroring, rain is set to fall throughout Saturday, potentially creating a jumbled-up grid.
Given the narrow twisty layout of the Hungaroring, few of the usual top-of-the-grid drivers will be pleased by the weather knowing that one mistake will put them in the chaotic midfield.
Last year, Alpine’s Esteban Ocon mastered the mixed conditions and scored a shock win.
