Hulkenberg on scoring Audi points in Hungary
Nico Hulkenberg admits scoring points for Audi this season has been “a long time coming” after finishing ninth at the Hungarian Grand Prix. Hulkenberg said: "Obviously better to have points than not. It's been a long time coming this season. There were many occasions and opportunities this year where it should've happened but it didn't for various reasons, so that was annoying but that's racing sometimes for you. I and the team knew it's there – it was just a matter of time and putting it together. Finally, the piece fell into place."

Hamilton on inconsistent stewarding after Hungarian GP penalties
Lewis Hamilton says Formula 1’s stewards have been inconsistent, after he received a three-place grid penalty and a five-second race penalty at the Hungarian Grand Prix. Hamilton said: "The last two races have been pretty bad from my side. Silverstone was my fault. We did talk about it in the driver's briefing, about the fact that they're inconsistent with the start. There's been drives in the past that have moved and haven't been penalised. We discussed with them the fact that as long as you're not moving when the lights are on, you shouldn't be penalised. I wasn't at my box, and they agreed. So they're looking into that."
