F1 LIVE | The Media Day of the Hungarian Grand Prix

Verstappen not on the list for the FIA press conference

The Hungarian Grand Prix's media day will take place tomorrow. After the Belgian Grand Prix, where he was vocal about the delay, he will not attend the FIA press conference. Instead, he will talk to media separately.

Red Bull will be completely absent from the drivers' and team representatives' press conferences, as neither Yuki Tsunoda nor team principal Laurent Mekies is scheduled to attend one on either Thursday or Friday. See the complete list here!

The Hungarian Grand Prix

Up next on the calendar is the track that hosts its 40th GP this weekend, the Hungaroring. It was the first circuit to host an F1 weekend beyond the Iron Curtain back in 1986, and has been on the calendar ever since.

The track is located in Mogyoród, 4.381 km (2.722 miles) long, and has 14 corners. Lewis Hamilton has won the most times at this circuit, having crossed the finish line in first place eight times.
