Six reasons Ferrari and Red Bull are back in the game
Mercedes says it's no surprise to see Red Bull in the mix in Hungary - and with good reason. Add Ferrari's ever-presence at the sharp end in 2017 and there's a genuine chance of a three-way fight on Sunday
Red Bull and Ferrari took a bit of a beating last time out at Silverstone, as Mercedes dominated the British Grand Prix and suggested it might be about to stretch clearly away from the rest of the Formula 1 field at last.
But despite his squad's most complete performance of the season, Mercedes team boss Toto Wolff sounded notes of caution about the rest of the season to come: "Our car is not always easy to set up.
