Bottas: "I don't see any positives in this race"

Oh, Valtteri. Valtteri Bottas has not had the best year of his career by any stretch. Seemingly cursed by bad luck, the Finn had another day to forget today in the Hungarian Grand Prix.

Entering the dying stages of the race, Bottas was running in second place, his starting position, and came under attack from the Ferrari duo of Sebastian Vettel and Kimi Raikkonen.

Entering turn three, he seemed to be overtaken by Vettel, but collided on the apex, taking off a large chunk of his front wing.

With the reduced downforce, he was slow, and understeered into Daniel Ricciardo soon after for another incident.

He told Sky Sports after the race: "I don't see any positives in this race for me.

"I wanted a better result.

"We thought in theory we should have been able to do that one stop. We had to stop earlier than we wanted because of Kimi, we had to cover him, and still 20 laps before the end everything was feeling ok with good control and the pace and my position.

"But the rear tyres started to die. I tried to defend the best I could, as aggressive as I could, but it just ended up being a bit of a mess with the end with the broken front wing and everything."

When will Bottas' dreadful run of luck end? He will be more than grateful for the summer break and three weeks away from racing.
