Sebastian Vettel Wins the Hungarian Grand Prix

Budapest — The Hungarian Grand Prix on Sunday was a poignant reminder, in both its underlying tragic backdrop as well as the track action, that sport is all about emotion.

Ten minutes before the race began at 2 p.m. local time, the starting grid preparations were marked by an emotion that it seemed would make the subsequent race irrelevant. The 73,000 spectators went completely silent along with the teams, the drivers and the family of Jules Bianchi, in a commemoration for the driver who died on July 17, after nine months in a coma from injuries in a race last year.
