Alfa Romeo have two sets of gills, Ferrari have a large opening behind the halo, while Aston Martin have one of the most open pieces of gill-like bodywork on the side of their AMR21s.

Watch the video in the player above to see the ingenious ways teams are cooling their cars for Hungary – and switch to F1 TV to see the full 44-minute feature.
