From the start list six drivers already won in the past at Hungaroring : Barrichello, Buton, Raikkonen, Alonso, Kovalainen and Hamilton. Most experienced drivers is Barrichello with 16 starts at Hungaroring followed by Fisichella and Trulli with 12.
First task in this weekend for each driver will be the fight for a good place on the grid. Only Hamilton have 2 pole positions at Hungaroring, and one for Barrichello, Raikkonen and Alonso.
Last task is a great position at the end of the race, if posibile on the podium. Kimi Raikkonen have already 4 podiums, Barrichello 3, Heidfeld and Alonso 2 and one for Button, Kovalainen, Hamilton and Glock.
Raikkonen and Barrichello have most points, 35 followed by Alonso with 26.
If we take a look at all time F1 races at Hungaroring, again, Michael Schumacher will rule all the tops. Just at podiums he is a little behind Senna, both had 7 podiums, the only difference is that Senna in 8 races (87%) while Schumacher from 14 (50%). In all tops Senna is with Schumacher except at fastest laps. Senna in 8 races have 3 victories, 3 pole positions, 7 podiums, in 7 races finish in points with a total of 53 points, but he never had the fastest lap on Hungaroring.

China GP brings to Sebastien Vettel the second pole position in his formula1 career. First pole position for Vettel was in season 2008 at Monza, where he also won the race driving for Toro Rosso.
That was the only race where Sebastien Vettel was ever on pole, and the only race he finished on podium.
Vettel participate in 28 F1 races and finish the race in 18 of them. In 6 races he finish the race in a position bellow from the start.
This season Vettel almost won his second podium, but he had a collision with Kubica at Melbourne. Looks like there are big chances for a podium in 2009 China F1 race for Vettel.
