End of series for Hülkenberg and Force India

Less in sight throughout the weekend at the Hungaroring, the Force India VJM07s disappeared quite quickly during the race during two track exits. Nico Hulkenberg, who clashed with his teammate, wanted to apologize. “I tried to pass him on the inside, but he tightened his trajectory. There was contact and I lost my front wing then shot straight into the safety barrier, explained the German. It's my fault, and I want to apologize to the team. »

A much more spectacular exit from the track for the Mexican Pérez, who provoked the second intervention of the safety car. “I went too wide out of the last corner, and I lost the car on the curb, and I was in the wall. It's a shame, because we deserved the points today. » admits Pérez. This is also the first Grand Prix of the season where Nico Hülkenberg does not score points, thus stopping his series at 10 consecutive Grands Prix.
