Hungary for more? Well it's the summer break but your appetites for more F1 are satisfied after a chaotic and at times confusing race. Ocon took home the win in unconventional fashion as Bottas went bowling and banked a strike consisting of both Rebulls. If last week was the moment of the season then surely Hungary was the turning point. At half way the dial has turned and it’s advantage Hamilton to the tune of 8 points. Vettel threw Aston Martin over his shoulder again and dragged home a feel-good second, he showed his good guy side again and supported diversity and equality but a slap on the wrist and a clip around the ear saw him fined and disqualified for an insufficient fuel sample, is it time to re-look at the rules? Williams finally banked the points they have longed for, and after 715 days between drinks it was Latifi who out raced Russell and took home the chocolates. We saw a raw and emotional Russell, is Mercedes the home for George or is he better suited as the future of Williams? And last but not least it was birthday boy Alonso who wound back the clock and put on a driving masterclass. If age is just a number then Alonso is just getting started. Alpine look justified in their signing and the Spaniard is back to his very best, a race win without a race win. All that plus Race Ranking, Race Review, Dud of the Day, Fantasy, Beyond the Bet, News, Gossip, Formula 1.5 and much much more on this weeks episode of BTRL
