"The Formula 1 circus returns to the Hungaroring for the 17th year after a busy three-week &amp;quot;break.&amp;quot; Hungary&amp;#039;s F1 circuit is famous for hosting the first-ever race behind the Iron Curtain in 1986. The venue&amp;#039;s tight, tortuous layout has made for many a dull race, but it remains popular among F1 fans (and journalists) thanks to Budapest&amp;#039;s lively nightlife.  Another peculiarity of the Hungarian Grand Prix is that it&amp;#039;s a race Sebastian Vettel has yet to win. McLaren has won four of the last five races here, but this year, the team can hardly be considered a favorite. The track requires maximum downforce and top speed is almost irrelevant; this is where Red Bull shines. Earlier in the season, Adrian Newey&amp;#039;s creations could not harness all of the RB9&amp;#039;s capable downforce because the 2013-spec Pirellis couldn&amp;#039;t cope. Now that the tire manufacturer has returned to a 2012-construction model, Red Bull is free to fully exploit its aero advantages.  Race-day weather is expected to be hot, and this may be the saving grace for teams whose cars were designed to be gentlest on tires (i.e. Lotus and, to some extent, Ferrari).  The past few weeks of vacation have seen a number of important stories develop, including the financial rescue of Sauber and the official bribery indictment of Bernie Ecclestone, which leaves many speculating about the future of F1&amp;#039;s supreme leader. And then there&amp;#039;s all the driver scuttlebutt. The FIA&amp;#039;s &amp;quot;Young Drivers Test&amp;quot; at Silverstone debuted several promising up-and-comers, like Kevin Magnussen; Carlos Sainz, Jr.; James Calado; Ant\u00F3nio F\u00E9lix da Costa; and Robin Frijns. All are names you&amp;#039;ll hear bandied about in the years to come as teams look to fill seats in F1&amp;#039;s ongoing game of musical chairs.  Television coverage will look somewhat different, too. The FIA has banned media from the pit lane during the race in response to the German GP mishap that saw an errant wheel blindside a cameraman. Many view this to be an overreaction on the part of the FIA, but as pressure of ever-faster pit stops increases, the FIA is ready to go even further with a proposal for an equal-timed stop for everyone. No one wants to see another limit imposed at the pinnacle of the sport. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
