Valtteri Bottas is not having a great season at Alfa Romeo so far. He has only managed to score five points in the world championship, where teammate Guanyu Zhou managed four. The Finnish driver looks ahead to his next race: the Hungarian Grand Prix at the Hungaroring. He does so in his team's preview of next weekend.

"The upgrades we brought in Silverstone allowed us to make a slight improvement in terms of pace, even though we didn’t get all out of them, and I know we have all been working hard to fully unlock their potential. I have always enjoyed racing at the Hungaroring in the past, and I am keen to be back this weekend," Bottas said.

Home race for Bottas?

"It’s as close to a home race as it gets, for a Finnish driver, and I love the old-school atmosphere of the track. Our task there will be only one: finding our momentum again and adding new points to our tally," he adds. Whether Bottas will drive in the points in Hungary next weekend remains very much to be seen.
