Sebastian Vettel did not get the incident-free weekend he was hoping for after announcing his impending retirement on the eve of the Hungarian Grand Prix.
The practice session on Saturday came after a deluge of rain which made the Budapest track very wet. Most drivers managed to avoid any incidents, though Charles Leclerc threatened to crash his Ferrari before managing to regain control after a spin.
In the end it was the man of the moment Vettel who went off as he lost control of his rear tyres. His Aston Martin skidded across the gravel before hitting the tyre wall – possibly causing damage to his gearbox in the process.
