The tight and twisty nature of the circuit means the Hungarian GP will be a litmus test of 2022 F1 cars, which are designed to improve overtaking.
It also means that there will be extra emphasis on qualifying, where Ferrari has had the edge over Red Bull so far.
But following Charles Leclerc's crash in the French GP and a fifth place result for Carlos Sainz after a back-of-the-grid start, the Scuderia has a mountain to climb to close the gap to Red Bull in both championships.
In the drivers' standings, Verstappen sits 63 points clear of Leclerc, while Red Bull is 82 points ahead of Ferrari in the constructors' table.
