Crazy luck for Rosberg as he avoids a late yellow flag to set the pole time!

^ Rosberg actually was investigated regardless, but no action was taken in the end.

15 minutes to go to the start of the Hungary GP. It's the mid-point race of the season and the Rosberg and Hamilton are separated by just 1 point.
Massa was back in the pits with a steering issue, but has made it to the grid on time.

Button looks like he'll be our first retirement.

Button gets told to stay out, so he's going to keep going for at least a bit longer.

That radio communication rule is ridiculous, Button gets a drive through penalty for getting told how to (presumably) prevent damage to the car.

Could be an interesting late stage of the race. Mercedes aren't exactly running away with it today.

Hamilton is still out in the lead after that round of pit stops. It looks like it's his race to lose but it is still relatively close at the front, though.

It's REALLY close now. Rosberg within one second.

Hamilton wins it in Hungary and takes the championship lead for the first time this year!

3 close battles towards the end there, especially the Kimi/Verstappen one.
Ricciardo finishes 3rd for the 3rd time in a row and moves up to 3rd in the championship.
It was a shame for Palmer that he spun out of the points.
It was a mixed bag for McLaren, solid result for Alonso but Button probably wants to forget that race.

Never understood why the pole sitter must start on the outside of a sharp hairpin first turn @ Hungary.
The entire race was decided just based on that alone.
