5 Talking points from the 2019 Hungarian Grand Prix

Lukewarm drive from Gasly?

F1 Grand Prix of Hungary where Gasly finished P6

So far, with 12 races done, we've only gotten used to seeing one Red Bull dominate the charts. We saw that at the team's home racing event at Spielberg. We saw that at China earlier. And we saw that throughout the weekend at the iconic Hungaroring. And it's been Max Verstappen's season all along so far.

One hasn't really seen fireworks from Pierre Gasly's Red Bull. Though he finished with a respectable P6 at the just-concluded 2019 Hungarian Grand Prix, there wasn't an awful lot of thrill associated with arguably, the slower of the two Red Bulls.

Though Pierre Gasly's sixth-place finish, in the end, was a marked improvement over his fourteenth place on the grid, as seen at the Hockenheimring, it can be said, a finish higher up toward the top three or even four would've made his life fairly easier.

In a season where the young Frenchman has copped up some criticism, arguably due to his failure to match the imperious Max Verstappen, it remains to be seen if the driver can capture a podium, to justify his selection at the Christian Horner and Helmut Marko-driven outfit.
