Alonso forced to change engines before FP2

Fernando Alonso has been forced to swap Honda engines ahead of second free practice for the Hungarian Grand Prix after a problem in the morning session. Analysis of Alonso's power unit from first practice highlighted a potential problem, and a decision was taken to revert him to a previous engine. The engine he will use is the one last used at the Austrian Grand Prix, which also made appearances in Monaco, Canada and Baku.
