McLaren F1 gears up for a strong showing at the Hungaroring, eyeing a much-anticipated win.

The McLaren MCL38, however, is expected to perform well on the twisty Hungarian track in Budapest, and the team is eager to bounce back at the Hungaroring.
“It was good to have some time to recharge and refresh after a busy three weeks,” shares Lando Norris.
“I was back at the factory at the MTC with the team to celebrate the last three races. During my time at the factory, I jumped into the simulator and reviewed everything we learned before Hungary.”
“I’m looking forward to returning to the Hungaroring. Qualifying is important here, as it’s not an easy track to overtake on, but we will be competitive. It’s incredible to be in a position to lead a Grand Prix, but there’s still work to do to finish on top more often. We are ready!”
“I’m heading to Hungary after two good weekends in Austria and Great Britain where I was pleased with my driving,” adds Oscar Piastri.
“We missed some opportunities at Silverstone, but it was clear the car had a good pace and that’s encouraging. The Hungaroring is a track where I’ve had success in junior formulas, so I’m looking forward to it. The entire team is approaching this race with a lot of confidence and motivation.”
Andrea Stella, the team principal, certainly hopes to put the operational errors of Silverstone behind him.
“With the British Grand Prix over, we have passed the midpoint of the 2024 season. It’s a good time to reflect on the journey so far. We are in a strong position in the constructors’ championship, thanks to our drivers and the incredible team we have at McLaren, and we have outperformed our closest competitors in recent events. This consistency is important if we want to compete at the highest level of our sport.”
“Last week, we took time to celebrate a successful triple header where we came back with three trophies and two Sprint trophies. However, there is still much to do. We are encouraged to continue improving to ensure we keep the pressure on our competitors. We are ready and looking forward to getting back on the Hungaroring circuit.”
