Hungarian Grand Prix - Preview

======================================================================

Panasonic Toyota Racing travels east across Europe this weekend for
the Hungarian Grand Prix at the Hungaroring on the outskirts of
Budapest. In keeping with its philosophy of continuous improvement,
the team has a further package of upgrades available, including a
rear wing evolution, while two consecutive compounds of Bridgestone
Potenza tyre will be used. The soft and super soft compounds have
been chosen due to the specific requirements of the low-speed,
14-turn Hungaroring. The track has been a happy hunting ground in
recent years, with the team having a presence in the top six in
qualifying and the race on all its last four visits. Timo already has
a prized souvenir of the Hungaroring after achieving his first
Formula 1 podium there last year, when he finished a well-deserved
second place. That was Toyota's second podium in Hungary, following
Ralf Schumacher's third place in 2005, and the team is focused on
achieving another positive result this time around.
