Hungarian Grand Prix 2023: Storylines, how to watch, streaming, odds, and more

If you are reading this then you probably know by now.

Daniel Ricciardo is back.

The veteran driver went from Red Bull reserve, to having a seat with AlphaTauri, in just a few short months. But Ricciardo’s return is just one of the many storylines to watch as Formula 1 heads to the Hungaroring for the Hungarian Grand Prix.

Here’s how to watch, and what to watch for, this weekend.

What to Watch:

There is the twisty, technically-demanding course they call Hungaroring, with its 14 turns and pair of DRS zones.

The circuit has been referred to as “Monaco without the walls,” and just looking at the circuit layout you can see why. The track has many more corners than straights, and the lack of straights leads teams to treat it like Monaco, opting for similar levels of downforce while sacrificing horsepower.

Tyres take a beating at the Hungaroring, due to the layout, and the heat. Temperatures for the weekend are forecast to be in the upper 80s, and over the years track temperatures average around 100 degrees Fahrenheit, sometimes reaching 122 degrees Fahrenheit.
