Belgian GP preview: Who holds the advantage in the second half of the season?

Related Topics: Scuderia Ferrari

Ferrari's victory ahead of the summer break was exactly what this year's title race needed. After four strong races for Mercedes between Montreal and Silverstone, the pendulum swung back in favour of Ferrari at the Hungaroring.

Not only did the result mean title rivals Lewis Hamilton and Sebastian Vettel finished the first half of the season with four wins each, it also stuck to this season's trend of Ferrari having the edge at slow-speed circuits and Mercedes being the team to beat at high-speed tracks. With that in mind, it's possible to look at the remaining races and make an educated guess (nothing more) as to who should have the more competitive package at each round.
