Hungary 2008: The Grid

Hungary 2008: The Grid

McLaren look very strong on the front row of the Hungaroring grid. The pair of MP4-23 drivers appear to be hooked-up with the Hungarian circuit and the car is doing a good job on the tight and twisty corners. Ferrari have a lot of work do, especially as Kimi Raikkonen is back in sixth. Between himself and his team mate in third are Robert Kubica and Timo Glock. And just behind the Finn are Fernando Alonso – who has looked relatively pacey all weekend – and Mark Webber and Jarno Trulli, both in reasonably competitive cars.
