Teams' driver line-up for Hungaroring in-season test

Not everyone will be heading to the beach this week as Formula 1's second in-season test takes place in Hungary on Tuesday and Wednesday.

Teams haven't all finalized their driver line-ups but the majority of the runners are known.

Mercedes will rely on junior member and current F2 championship leader George Russell on both days of the in-season test.

Ferrari have delegated test driver Antonio Giovinazzi and Kimi Raikkonen, the young Italian switching to Sauber on Wednesday.

As much as longs for a summer break, Daniel Ricciardo will be on duty on Tuesday with Red Bull, followed by British hopeful Jake Dennis who gets his second test with the Milton Keynes-based outfit.

Phillip van Osten

Motor racing was a backdrop from the outset in Phillip van Osten's life. Born in Southern California, Phillip grew up with the sights and sounds of fast cars thanks to his father, Dick van Osten, an editor and writer for Auto Speed and Sport and Motor Trend. Phillip's passion for racing grew even more when his family moved to Europe and he became acquainted with the extraordinary world of Grand Prix racing. He was an early contributor to the monthly French F1i Magazine, often providing a historic or business perspective on Formula 1's affairs. In 2012, he co-authored along with fellow journalist Pierre Van Vliet the English-language adaptation of a limited edition book devoted to the great Belgian driver Jacky Ickx. He also authored "The American Legacy in Formula 1", a book which recounts the trials and tribulations of American drivers in Grand Prix racing. Phillip is also a commentator for Belgian broadcaster Be.TV for the US Indycar series.
