Lewis Hamilton believes overheating issues with Formula 1’s Pirelli tyres will꧑ result✃ in a “train race” at this weekend’s Hungarian Grand Prix. 

Drivers struggled throughout Friday practice in hot conditions in Budapest and experienced overheating issues, with Hamilton seen running wide and loඣcking up his tyres on a number of occasions. 

The new championship leader, who ended up with the fifth-quickest time in both sessions, ♒re෴ported his tyres were “terrible” after suffering a wayward moment at the chicane during FP1. 

“I imagine in the race it’s g🐲oing to be train race. There’s not going to be any cars overtaking in this race. That’s just how it is,” Hamilton explained. 

“It’s the temperature and it’s the type of track it is, it’s just corner after corner after corner, so there’s noꦇ time for the tyres to cool down.”

Hamilton’s concerns echoed Renault driver Nico Hulkenberg’s fears that tyre management will force drivers to 😼“hold back” in Sunday’s race. 

The Briton went as far as sugges💞ting a new tyre should be introduced for the racဣe that is specifically designed to cope with the higher temperatures and characteristics of the Hungaroring.  

“It’s almost like for this track, they need to make special tyres, probably for different circuits that are more severe on the tyres to enable you to keep pushing and remain close to ot▨her cars,” he said. 

“You need a tyr🌟e that doesn’t overheat because at the moment, just on your own, it overheats.”
