Summary

After a week off from a frantic triple header, the second half of the season starts this weekend with Round 13 and the Hungarian Grand Prix. Jonathan Noble and Sam Hall join Bryn Lucas to have a mid-season review of the major contenders, and make note of the big swings of form between the first six races of the year, and the most recent six. Discussions includes discussion on how the field has caught up to Red Bull as the sport hit Europe, and how much Sergio Perez is leaving on the table for the reigning Champions, as well as McLaren and pondering whether they're "ready" to win given their mistakes on and off the track in recent races. There's also chat on Mercedes and how they've bridged the gap from fourth best team to back-to-back wins, and how Ferrari have gone backwards in terms of development.
