We start talking about the drivers market. There are a lot of riders with contracts expiring at the end of this year, this is the list.
Lewis Hamilton Yuki Tsunoda Daniel Ricciardo Kevin Magnussen Nico Hülkenberg Guanyu Zhou Logan Sargeant
I have heard that Hamilton is quite eager to race in F1 for 5 more years. He really wants that 8th title but let's see what time brings to us. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) As of 2026, Mercedes will need to get ahead of Red Bull about car development to make it possible for Hamilton. Otherwise it is very likely to stay as just a dream for him. For now they say Mercedes are ahead of Red Bull on this topic. Ricciardo has signed for AlphaTauri for the rest of the season. After that it is doubtful what he will do. I read some news like Red Bull have announced Perez for next season also but I don't know how true that is. If Perez continues to disappoint his team I think that he might not be able to stay that long.

^ Perez's contract will end at the end of 2024 season. So he has one more year to go after this one. Leclerc Contract will expire at the end of 2024, so Ferrari can do a double change for 2025 with 2 new drives if Sainz is confirmed to going out to Audi.
Both drivers are far behind the expectations at Ferrari (also Ferrari itself), it would not surprise me if both drivers have to go? Sainz will definitely have to go, but why should Audi take him? Sainz is a decent enough driver who has the experience to help a smaller team like Sauber. Not sure why they're carrying the name Audi cos as far as I know, Audi just bought a minority in Sauber? It's a welcome change tho. Nice to see something new on the grid. Here's what I want to know for the race this weekend... Ricciardo is confirmed to drive at Alpha Tauri right? And if so what do you guys think of Ricciardo to get a points finish at 3.40? ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

Here's what I want to know for the race this weekend... Ricciardo is confirmed to drive at Alpha Tauri right? And if so what do you guys think of Ricciardo to get a points finish at 3.40? ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Yeah he is confirmed to drive for them from now on. I expect him to be faster than Tsunoda after a short time period. But in his first race I really don't know. He has been far away from F1 for a long time despite still being one of the most earners in the sport. But his results in tyre testing session wasn't bad that much. For his first race I won't be betting on points finish for Ricciardo. But after this race I think why not give it a try? ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) I think Ricciardo can collect more points than Tsunoda despite coming here in the middle of the season. Tsunoda still has only 2 points.

Both drivers are far behind the expectations at Ferrari (also Ferrari itself), it would not surprise me if both drivers have to go? Sainz will definitely have to go, but why should Audi take him? Beacause I think Sainz was probably hoping for more changes after joining Ferrari, however... after more than two seasons he has only won one race. Sainz is already 28 years old and needs to start worrying about those performances, and Ferrari seems clearly not to be the right place for him. The Sauber CEO has already said that Sainz is the F1 driver currently at the top of his list as a possible name for Audi, that is of course if Sauber becomes the new bearer of the name that currently is Alfa Romeo. With the influx of German money Sauber will be looking to expand their organization, they will clearly want to compete for wins within a three years time at the latest from 2026. And honestly, I would find it quite impressive to see the Ferrari driver leave the Italian team for Audi. Ferrari unfortunately is no longer at the same level of competitiveness.

Hamilton will definitely chase that 8th title with Mercedes, I am not expecting him to change his team this late into his career unless Mercedes doesn't sign him and we all know they will, they owe so much to him, and they are raising a young driver meanwhile anyway so that shouldn't be an issue.
Ricciardo just got there, doubt he will leave, and Yuki looks to be good as well so I do not think he would leave neither. On that list, the only player I can see who may leave is Logan Sergeant, he is constantly beaten by his teammate Albon, and that means he may end up looking for a team that he can race and be better, not in f1 of course, he may go back to indy series, he would be much better at home and do a lot better as well.

It seems that Sergeant is currently in the adjustment and learning phase as he is still very young and still has a lot to learn. It's still very early to say that Sergeant will leave F1 because even if his performances are not good enough, he is still quite competitive. I think just give him time to improve his performance and maybe he will be quite as competitive as his teammates in the coming seasons.

I think just give him time to improve his performance and maybe he will be quite as competitive as his teammates in the coming seasons. I also agree that Redbull team who owns also A.Tauri should not have been so fast to judge a poor or not poor performance of a rookie as after all rookies need time and just 10-11 races are not enough to judge a driver in his first year of his F1 career,I think one full season is needed in order to judge a new driver and even just one season for me is not enough as in many races bad luck can happen to any driver including rookies. Albon has much more experience than him so it is only natural that he most likely beats him every time,Albon even raced at Redbull for sometime so sure he is much more grown up in F1 than Sergeant is,nothing to judge here for me.

FP1 is about to start on Hungaroring. There is no rain for now but we can see rain clouds easily. There is already rain expected here today but I doubt we can see it during FP1 and FP2 today. Aside from that there is no rain expectation for tomorrow and Sunday either. This can turn out to be a pretty boring race for us. Verstappen is going to race with some new parts in this race and I'm wondering how much the new sidepod will affect his performance. I guess that he wouldn't lose anything from his dominance. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) I decided not to bet on Perez to do nice things in qualifying session for the rest of the season. He has been disappointing for quite many weekends and I don't want to take that risk. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

Sainz is an A class driver but not a A+ driver , A+ driver are Leclerc, Norris, Russel talking about "new generation".
But i dont put any guilt on him despite some mistakes he made, Ferrari its a shit for the last 10 years, they always make X mistake, in engine, pit stop, etc.
Especially in the last two races i felt pretty bad for Sainz. I think it was in Austria were he was directly behind LeClerc for many many rounds and it was obvious that he could go fast than him but still he was not allowed to go past him. I mean they could have just let him go past LeClerc and see how it works out. If he would have not been significantly fast than him, then they could have just swapped back again, but they did not even give him the chance. So it is pretty obvious that Sainz is only the number 2 for his team, which must be a shitty feeling for him. LeClerc definitely is a little bit faster than him, but he also still makes a lot of unnecessary mistakes that have cost him a lot of potential points already.

Here's what I want to know for the race this weekend... Ricciardo is confirmed to drive at Alpha Tauri right? And if so what do you guys think of Ricciardo to get a points finish at 3.40? ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Yeah he is confirmed to drive for them from now on. I expect him to be faster than Tsunoda after a short time period. But in his first race I really don't know. He has been far away from F1 for a long time despite still being one of the most earners in the sport. But his results in tyre testing session wasn't bad that much. For his first race I won't be betting on points finish for Ricciardo. But after this race I think why not give it a try? ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) I think Ricciardo can collect more points than Tsunoda despite coming here in the middle of the season. Tsunoda still has only 2 points. I might put a little something for Ricciardo points finish if the price doesn't change after FP3 and before qualifying. Some head to head bets could also be good as he'll prolly mostly be an underdog vs most of the other drivers. And I didn't watch FP1 but judging from the results, I'm guessing it rained? 7 drivers didn't set a time, including Ricciardo. :/ 2023 F1 Hungarian GP FP1 Results1 George Russell GBR Mercedes AMG Petronas F1 Team 1m38.795s 2 Oscar Piastri AUS McLaren F1 Team 1m39.154s 3 Lance Stroll CAN Aston Martin Aramco Cognizant Formula One Team 1m40.013s 4 Lando Norris GBR McLaren F1 Team 1m40.277s 5 Fernando Alonso ESP Aston Martin Aramco Cognizant Formula One Team 1m40.687s 6 Valtteri Bottas FIN Alfa Romeo F1 Team Stake 1m41.032s 7 Charles Leclerc MON Scuderia Ferrari 1m41.142s 8 Zhou Guanyu CHN Alfa Romeo F1 Team Stake 1m41.363s 9 Logan Sargeant USA Williams Racing 1m41.416s 10 Nico Hulkenberg GER MoneyGram Haas F1 Team 1m42.706s 11 Kevin Magnussen DEN MoneyGram Haas F1 Team 1m42.906s 12 Yuki Tsunoda JPN Scuderia AlphaTauri 1m45.575s 13 Alex Albon THA Williams Racing 1m47.407s 14 Daniel Ricciardo AUS Scuderia AlphaTauri No Time Set 15 Carlos Sainz ESP Scuderia Ferrari No Time Set 16 Sergio Perez MEX Oracle Bull Racing No Time Set 17 Esteban Ocon FRA BWT Alpine F1 Team No Time Set 18 Pierre Gasly FRA BWT Alpine F1 Team No Time Set 19 Max Verstappen NED Oracle Red Bull Racing No Time Set 20 Lewis Hamilton GBR Mercedes AMG Petronas F1 Team No Time Set Edit: Yup it rained and Perez and Sainz crashed causing a red flag. https://www.crash.net/f1/news/1031690/1/russell-tops-rainhit-fp1-perez-and-sainz-both-shuntThis practice session doesn't really say much.

It means we will not have valuable insights for who will be the best qualifier if all free practices will be held in wet sessions.It means that it will be even more mystery regarding this official qualifying.I am not afraid of the upgrade Redbull has done as they will most likely won't achieve an advantage of over 0.2 seconds because of such upgrade in a slow track like this one.In here it is anybody's game as I have said before because this is one of the slowest tracks of the whole calendar after Monaco so it should in theory produce a very good qualifying and race.

This picture LOL. I can feel how much pressure Checo is facing right now. It must have been stressful enough for him to see his teammates in first place and Daniel's performance which was quite good which could replace him at any time. Plus the very harsh environment of Red Bull who are very quick to change their drivers. Checo must be really stressed right now.

Plus the very harsh environment of Red Bull who are very quick to change their drivers. Checo must be really stressed right now. I can understand that he must be stressed right now but the best thing to do is to keep his head down and forget about what is happening around him by putting an amazing performance in the race of Hungary this weekend which would make these persons who make the ambient for him really stressful to forget about Checo for sometime.This is the only answer a driver like Checo should give to all these people,the answer is only given in the track in Formula 1 and not in different interviews many other drivers go give here and there. As for the picture I don't think he will go to Alpha Tauri most likely.

3rd hour has gone and it is not so clear if Max will do the pole.
RBR seems to have some problems with cooling down the tires so they don't have the perfect grip for the entire lap.
If they can't fix the problem, they will risk it.
Also interested in the new format of they qualify.

It's very unexpected to see Hamilton taking pole. It's already his 9th pole on this track if I'm not mistaken, so, it's his track and he managed to do it even with bad car. Offcourse, big factor was that Verstappen didn't managed to make good lap on his last attempt. And when it comes to race, it probably won't cause problems for Max to win race. And Perez - well, at least he managed to get in Q3. This meme summarizes qualification very well ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftalkimg.com%2Fimages%2F2023%2F07%2F22%2FnmBzN.jpeg&t=665&c=Em2rsizDL9ZMVA)
