EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a remarkable moment during the Hungarian Grand Prix in Budapest on 15 August 2002. The image showcases the Hungaroring, a renowned Formula One circuit, amidst one of the most severe floods to hit Europe in a century. Despite the challenging conditions, this iconic track seems to have acquired an unexpected feature - weepers. The weepers depicted in the photograph are small streams or rivulets that emerge from beneath the surface of a race track due to excessive water pressure. These natural springs create additional challenges for drivers as they navigate through already treacherous wet conditions. The presence of these weepers adds an extra layer of complexity and excitement to an already thrilling race. The resilience and determination displayed by both drivers and organizers during this event is truly commendable. It serves as a testament to their unwavering commitment towards delivering top-notch motorsport entertainment despite adverse circumstances. This digital image not only captures a historic sporting moment but also highlights the power of nature's forces over human endeavors. It reminds us that even in highly controlled environments like Formula One racing, Mother Nature can still make her presence felt with awe-inspiring intensity
