McLaren's Kevin Magnussen will start this afternoon's Hungarian Grand Prix at the Hungarorting from the pit-lane following his big first corner accident as he went into turn one at the start of Q3. The Woking based outfit worked extremely hard to get the car ready for the race. 

Magnussen will be joined in the pit-lane by Mercedes Lewis Hamilton who for the second race in a row went out of qualifying due to a problem. The 2008 world champions car was completely rebuilt with everything on the car replaced with the exception of his seat and front suspension.

Hamilton suffered a major fuel fire in Q1. So it will be a difficult day for Hamilton.
