HUNGARORING -- Jolyon Palmer says FP2 was more like rallycross than Formula One before his crash into the barriers ahead, something he put down to the work done to fix his Renault after a costly brush with the kerbs in Friday's morning session.

Palmer is under pressure at Renault, with zero points from the opening ten races and Robert Kubica's test appearance next week putting his future with the team in doubt. The Englishman has had the majority of the bad luck this season and was hoping for a clean weekend after his car broke down as he made his way to the grid for his home race at Silverstone.
