Lewis Hamilton Eyes Record Ninth Victory at Hungarian Grand Prix Amidst Rising Competition

Posted : 18 July 2024

Lewis Hamilton enters the upcoming Hungarian Grand Prix with renewed confidence, aiming to secure his ninth victory at the Hungaroring and Mercedes' third consecutive win of the season. Hamilton's recent triumph at the British Grand Prix ended a two-year winless streak, marking his record ninth home win at Silverstone. He now looks forward to tackling the challenges of the Hungaroring in forecasted intense heat, a track where he last clinched pole position.

 

Expressing his anticipation for the race, Hamilton emphasized his fondness for Hungary and his team's improving performance. The tight and twisty Hungaroring, often likened to 'Monaco without the walls,' has been a favorable venue for Hamilton throughout his career. He secured victories there in his debut season for McLaren in 2007 and continued to dominate after joining Mercedes, claiming wins in 2013, 2016, 2018, 2019, and 2020.

 

Hamilton's potential podium finish this weekend could mark his 200th career podium, while securing pole position would extend his record to 10, underscoring his legacy in Formula 1. Despite recent successes, Hamilton and teammate George Russell acknowledge the formidable challenge posed by defending champion Max Verstappen of Red Bull, who aims for a hat-trick of wins at the Hungaroring after victories in 2022 and last year.

 

Reflecting on his past successes at the circuit, Verstappen remains optimistic about his chances in what promises to be a competitive race weekend. As the drivers prepare to battle on the challenging Hungarian circuit, Hamilton and Verstappen emerge as key contenders in a race that could further shape the 2024 Formula 1 season standings.
