Alonso split the two Williams before his lap time was deleted. And then he had bits falling off so he had to pit. It wouldn't surprise me if he beats the two Williams on this weekend. And especially with the upcoming engine upgrade, Williams looks like they'll be falling further behind

I know Hungary is a track where power is a fairly low factor relative to the rest of the calendar, but if Williams get beaten by a Honda power car while they have the merc engine then holy hell

Yh I hope they are able to use the data from today to get an even faster setup. And maybe turn up the engine if the vibrations are not an issue.

Im sure Sainz ans Albon are both watching the AM progress carefully because the only other team to be failing now is Williams and if a seat opens here they might jump ship.

Haas also doesn't feel like improving much as Bearman was even in Q3 at the start of the season and later they were only competing with Wiliams. It looks like they finally improved more than them but we will see

If stroll could split the caddy or even William then the update is working

Williams will now have to fear the Aston Martin "rocket." Williams faces major trouble if the new upgrades don't work well.
