The lack of straights at the Hungaroring often sees it compared to a karting circuit.
Round 14 of the Formula 1 season heads to Budapest for the Hungarian Grand Prix at the Hungaroring from 1-3 August.
McLaren secured a one-two in both practice sessions on Friday in Budapest, with Lando Norris the quickest driver ahead of team-mate Oscar Piastri and the Ferrari of Charles Leclerc.
Sunday’s 70-lap grand prix starts at 14:00 BST.
Session start times and BBC coverage
Commentary of the race will be on BBC Radio 5 Live, BBC Sounds, the BBC Sport website and app and most smart speakers.

What is the weather forecast in Budapest?
Sunday’s forecast predicts light showers and a gentle breeze in the build up to the 70-lap Hungarian Grand Prix but the rain should be gone by the race start at 3pm local time.
On Saturday, qualifying conditions will be warm and dry with temperatures around 30C.
Piastri looks to extend championship lead
Oscar Piastri won the Belgian GP at Spa ahead of team-mate Lando Norris.
Piastri took his drivers’ championship lead to 16 points with a win in Spa.
He’ll be looking to further increase that lead in Budapest, where he was a winner last time out.
Norris will be hoping he can improve on a second-place finish at the Hungaroring last year to cut that deficit before a three-week hiatus for the traditional summer break.
