Alonso dominated the weekend at Budapest

With a dominant drive both in qualifying and the race, the Spaniard won the 2003 Hungarian Grand Prix unchallenged. Being only 22 years, he etched his name into the record books as the youngest driver to win a Formula 1 race.

Fernando Alonso started the race from pole and led most of the race. The Spaniard's best moment came when he lapped the world champion Michael Schumacher, who was down in the 8th place. Alonso's Renault was clearly superior to the rest of the field that weekend and managed to win the race with a margin of over 16 seconds.

The record of the youngest F1 victor is currently held by Red Bull's Max Verstappen after his win in the 2016 Spanish Grand Prix.
