Adrian Sutil is turning his season around. After a disappointing start in which his rookie teammate seemed to get the best of him he has scored some good points. Despite being behind Di Resta in qualifying duels he now has a decisive lead in points. The German has 18 points while Paul di Resta only has 2. Sutil says that he is very much looking forward to the next Grand Prix as there is a more relaxed atmosphere than other races: "The race in Budapest is always a really nice event. The weather is usually great and there's quite a relaxed feel to the weekend because it's the last race before the summer holidays."

About the track he notes that it's almost impossible to relax: "It's a very small track that's tight and twisty without many places to overtake. You are nearly always in a corner so it's a bit like Monaco and you don't get any chance to relax, apart from maybe the main straight. We will run with maximum downforce there because after Monaco it's the slowest circuit on the calendar."

The track isn't used as much as other tracks which means that the track is more green than others. Sutil says that that make for a difficult Friday: "The track is not used that much so it's usually quite dusty when we arrive. It cleans up as we start running, but Friday practice is always quite hard work. By the start of qualifying it has usually improved and the grip just builds up and up. When the track is like that it's really nice to drive."

Last year Sutil failed to finish the race.
