At the last race in Germany Mark Webber finally scored his maiden win after years of terrible luck. The Red Bull driver won the German Grand Prix convincingly, despite being handed a drive through penalty. Watch the Hungarian Grand Prix live online at www.watchf1.net to see if the popular Australian can make it two Formula 1 wins in a row.
Webber’s team-mate Sebastian Vettel finished second at the Nurburgring, closing the gap on F1 World Championship leaders Brawn GP and Jenson Button. While the Red Bull pair appear to be working in perfect harmony the mood is considerably darker in the Brawn garage. Rubens Barrichello publicly criticised the team after a pit stop problem left the Brazilian down in sixth place, behind his team-mate Button. At www.watchf1.net you can follow Barrichello at the Hungaroring and see if he can turn his season around.
Qualifying, as ever, will be vitally important at the Hungaroring. The tight, twisty and dusty track offers precious few opportunities for overtaking. It is not impossible, however. In 1989 Nigel Mansell won the race after starting from 12th. In 2006 Button won his first F1 race at the track despite starting from 14th on the grid. Watch the 2009 Hungarian Grand Prix live online at www.watchf1.net to see if any driver can perform a similar feat.
The 2009 Hungarian Grand Prix will be held on July 26th over 70 laps of the 4.381 km (2.722 miles) Hungaroring circuit. This makes a total race distance of 306.458 km (190.420 miles). The lap record dates from 2004, when Michael Schumacher recorded a time of 1 minute, 19.071 seconds in his Ferrari. Watch live Formula 1 streaming of the 2009 Hungarian Grand Prix at www.watchf1.net to see if any driver can approach the great German’s benchmark time.
Ferrari had a mixed weekend last time out in Germany. Felipe Massa finished third, but Kimi Raikkonen’s car failed. McLaren also experienced contrasting fortunes.

Heikki Kovalainen drove solidly to finish in eighth position.
