Sebastian Vettel ends the day on top

Thanks to his time of 1’17”124 achieved on super-softs, Sebastian Vettel remains the fastest of the day and even of all the mid-season tests in Hungary. He is ahead of the young pilot of F3 Lando Norris who manages to hoist his McLaren 3 tenths of the Ferrari and this with ultra-soft tires.

Kimi Raikkonen completed 60 laps today, taking Ferrari's total to 100 for Wednesday and placing 3e. Robert Kubica signs his return to official testing in F1. With 142 laps covered, he impressed by signing the 4e time more than a second behind the German.

Having only driven in the morning, Carlos Sainz sign on 5e time just ahead of Daniil Kvyat who rode in the afternoon. Lucas Auer signed on 7e time with Force India while Nikita Mazpin is 9e. George Russell places himself between the two pilots after having extensively tested the Halo.

Failing to have been among the fastest, Pierre Gasly was one of the most productive with the Red Bull passing the milestone of 100 completed laps. This is also the case for Luca Ghiotto who, for his first tests in F1, drove for 161 laps with the Williams and was the most productive of the day.

Santino Ferrucci completes a busy schedule for Haas with 116 laps just like Nobuharu Matsushita who took the Sauber over 121 loops of the Hungarian Tourniquet.
