F1 Hungarian Grand Prix 2023: Start time, full schedule, weather forecast and how to watch on TV
Only one driver, Sebastian Vettel, has ever managed more than seven consecutive victories as Verstappen looks to continue his streak by matching the personal bests of Michael Schumacher, Nico Rosberg and Alberto Ascari at Hungaroring.
The circuit has traditionally been a banker for Lewis Hamilton, who has eight wins in this grand prix, yet Verstappen won here a year ago despite starting tenth on the grid and spinning in a hectic race.
Hamilton will hope to challenge for a podium once again on Sunday while Lando Norris and the resurgent McLaren will fancy their chances.
Daniel Ricciardo is also set to race for the first time in F1 this season having signed a deal with AlphaTauri. That has put the pressure on Sergio Perez, who crashed in a wet first practice session.
