Sebastian Vettel is expecting a three-way battle for pole position between Ferrari, Mercedes and Red Bull at the Hungarian Grand Prix, following a competitive pair of practice sessions on Friday.
The Hungaroring is expected to play to the strengths of both Ferrari and Red Bull, and Friday's pace appears to suggest that to be the case as Daniel Ricciardo topped both practice sessions, with the top six -- made up of Red Bull, Ferrari and Mercedes drivers -- separated by less than 0.5s in the afternoon. Vettel, who ended up just 0.183s shy of Ricciardo's fastest time in FP2, believes his team needs to make a step forward in time for qualifying.
