F1: Hamilton Back In The Chase, Red Bull Embraces Alonso Rumour

Pole sitter Lewis Hamilton went into Sunday's Hungarian grand prix having written off his title chances and insisting victory would require a "miracle".

When the chequered flag dropped, the 'miracle' had been in the form of a dominant display, leaving Mercedes chairman Niki Lauda to deny the team had spent the weekend bluffing.

Briton Hamilton also insisted: "I'm baffled. Honestly, we really didn't expect this.  We bolted the tyres on and they worked for us."
