Mercedes showed how going outside of your comfort zone can be a good thing at the Hungarian GP. F1
The Silver Arrows, without a pole or victory to that point in 2022, arrived at the Hungarian Grand Prix with many once again tipping them for a strong result,However, the race weekend did not get off to a very competitive start, with the wet conditions of FP3 dropping Mercedes even further off the pace.
But, few expected Russell to do what he did as on his final flying lap, the Brit snatching pole for the Hungarian Grand Prix, the first pole position of his Formula 1 career. But the opportunity was very much there for Mercedes in the race at Hungary. Sunday’s usually play to the strengths of the reigning eight-time Constructors’ champions, though the key difference was that this time, in Russell’s case, there was no need to make up places on the grid, qualifying having in past rounds proven something of a Mercedes weakness.
