Another fast-paced weekend is upon us.

You read it, the 2008 F1 season resumes in Budapest as the top F1 drivers in the world compete to win the latest war on the race track, the 2008 F1 Hungarian Grand Prix.

This year’s race in Budapest should be an interesting one with the somewhat tight race for the drivers chapionship. McLaren’s Lewis Hamilton is leading the drivers championship standings with 58 points, closely followed by two Ferrari drivers Felipe Massa and Kimi Raikkonen with 54 and 51 points respectively.

Hamilton, after ending the most recent races of the season with first place finishes, should be the favorite to win the 2008 F1 Hungarian Grand Prix.

With Hamilton’s last two stellar performances, there is no doubt that he will win his third straight formula one race and further extend his lead over Ferrari drivers Felipe Massa and Kimi Raikkonen.The Hungarian GP is the 11th race of the season with seven more to go. The Budapest race consists of 70 laps with the circuit length of 3.81 KM covering a total distance of 306.663 KM.

The last two races here have been won by British drivers, with Lewis Hamilton winning the 2007 race ahead of Kimi Raikkonen for McLaren and Jenson Button winning the chaotic 2006 edition for Honda, his only F1 win to date.

There are three other former Hungarian Grand Prix winners in the field. Raikkonen won it in 2005 while racing for McLaren, Fernando Alonso won his maiden Grand Prix for Renault in 2003, and Rubens Barrichello won the 2002 race back when he was still racing for Ferrari.

Who will win the 2008 edition? Bet on the black dude.
