Formula One heads east next weekend to Budapest for Round 11 of the World Championship, the Hungarian Grand Prix.

After a dramatic race in the cooler, wetter climes of Germany last week, the Hungaroring is expected to bask in ambient temperatures of up to 35 degrees celsius. The beautiful city of Budapest is always a favourite pitstop on the Formula One calendar and the Honda Racing F1 Team look forward to returning to the scene of their first win one year ago where Jenson Button scored his first victory.

Shuhei Nakamoto - Senior Technical Director: "At our test in Jerez this week we worked on our set-up for Hungary and conducted an evaluation of our aerodynamic updates for this race. I am pleased to say that we found a good baseline. The Hungaroring provides a mixture of high and low speed turns and so mechanical grip is very important. The extremely hot conditions provided a good opportunity to test the engine and again the result was positive with good reliability. We understand that next weekend will be very hot indeed and so Jerez was a good acclimatisation opportunity for the challenging air and track temperatures we will face there. We hope to be in a position to score a point or two."

Rubens Barrichello: Next weekend is going to be a hot one! Possibly one of the hottest Hungarian Grands Prix. Our test in Jerez this week was a good opportunity to acclimatise to those conditions, both personally and for the car. We have some new developments - aero and mechanical - which worked well at the test and we seem to have found a little more performance, so we will see how they translate to the Hungaroring. I have had some good races there, winning once in 2002 and then a couple more podium finishes as well. I'm looking forward to it as it's a track I quite enjoy. I hope we can fight for a good result.
