F1 2021, Co-Op, S01, R09, Hungary

If Brett had a second favorite track to drive in the old days, it was probably Hungary (or Magyar Nyadij, as we say). That too has soured, even more than his favour towards Canada, and I don't think it will be on the calendar after S2 is over (which we're in the closing stages of now). Not sure why he's lost interest in it, exactly, but it seems harder to me than it used to be too and that middle sector or so is just rough, as is the carousel-like turn at the top of the hill.

That's another race down and another points finish for me! The high point of my momentum for the season, I believe...three points finishes in four rounds. I'm opening a lot of eyes and have the full attention of Ferrari (where I have been dreaming of going and which determined my start at Haas). 

Another DNF for Brett, meanwhile; looks like he had a solid start and ran as high as 12th or so, despite not setting a competitive laptime in qualifying, and then it was over for him at some point. Well, it wasn't a huge shock.

And what a drive from Mick! It didn't result in points, but he ran as high as...4th? By not stopping for tires until well after everyone else, but still. Pretty impressive, how did he do that?

Also, before I forget about it. What a run of qualifying 14thfor Ocon! He wasn't in 14th at the first two rounds, but since then: 14th, 14th, 19th, 14th, 14th, 14th, 14th. Very strange. Wonder how long he can keep that up? I suppose it's really an indictment of him...he's ahead of the two Alfas, the two Williams, and at least one of the Haases most of those occasions, I imagine.
