2. Did you know what ...? The Hungarian Grand Prix is started to run in full Cold War, so that the teams were subjected to extensive review processes in customs. This is to avoid that moved to Soviet citizens outside the territory of the regime. For this year the entire Hungarian circuit has been repavimentado with a black asphalt with a hint of very dark, unlike previous years. This will cause the track to retain higher temperatures in the surface, further complicating the condition of the wheels during the competition and involving a challenge in the strategy. In previous years, Hungary used to be the last race before the rest period of summer, which generated a great atmosphere and coexistence among the members of the teams after the end of the competition. However, this year there will be a career more before the holidays: the German Grand Prix at Hockenheim. Within the field of Hungaroring itself is located the waterpark Aquarena. It has swimming pools and water slides from where fans can enjoy glimpses of the race. The Flag of Hungary has the same colors as the Mexican flag. 3. Statements Czech Perez: "The race in Hungary is one of the most pleasant, there is a good atmosphere in the paddock and we are all fans of this beautiful city. Unfortunately this year the race is not the last before the summer holidays. In previous years there was a great celebration the night of the race, in which the environment and morale of all was incredible regardless of the result obtained in the competition. I have great memories of these moments. I hope that this year will continue the celebration, because it is a great way to release all the tension of the race". Esteban Gutierrez: "The Hungaroring itself is very special to me. It was the first track that I tried in Europe during 2007 in Formula BMW, so brings me great memories each time that I am here. I have achieved great results, so from that point of view I am happy to be back in Hungary. It is a slow track, but account with very fast corners and a stroke very interesting". VJ Mallya: The Director of Shara Force India F1 Team stated that it wants to end the constructorsâ championship in fourth place, site that currently occupies Williams F1 Team. The English team has an advantage of 19 points on the team of Czech Pérez.Carlos Sainz: "I like very much run in Hungary, like the circuit of Austria, the track of Budapest was also repavimentada, so that all the previous knowledge that we will have to start from scratch. In the first curve of the Hungaroring need to curb quite due to the high speed you aproximas, you have to go to 300kph to 80kph in less than 80 meters. Even so, I think that the second sector of the track is more interesting and pleasant to drive, I think that our car should be strengthened in this part of the circuit, so I am looking forward to the weekend." 4. Behind pits the controversy stemming from the communication between teams and drivers will return to form an important part of the agenda in Hungary after the sanction that received Nico Rosberg later to Silverstone. The teams will have to take care in the way they communicate with their pilots because the rules say that they should run without the guidance of their engineers. However, the teams argue that the cars are very sophisticated and sometimes pilots can ignore a problem of security. An example of this was the fault in the brakes that affected the car of Sergio Perez a couple of weeks ago.
