Waiting is the hardest part in Formula 1.
After a very dramatic — and controversial — Lewis Hamilton win at the British Grand Prix, F1 drivers head to Hungary for Round 11 of the 2021 FIA Formula 1 World Championship.
Hamilton (inadvertantly) took out driver's championship leader Max Verstappen in the first lap of the 2021 British GP, sending Verstappen into the wall in a 51G crash. Verstappen was sent to the hospital for precautionary measures, but the Red Bull driver hopes to be back on the track in two weeks' time.

F1 drivers head to the Hungaroring for Round 11 of the 2021 FIA Formula 1 World Championship.
In 2020, Hamilton took home the checkered flag at the Hungaroring, with Max Verstappen and Valtteri Bottas filling out the podium behind him. This year could prove more of the same if Verstappen and Hamilton keep trading wins.
