LONDON (Reuters) - Seven times world champion Lewis Hamilton has recovered from a strength-sapping Hungarian Grand Prix and will be in good shape for the second half of the Formula One season, Mercedes technical director Mike Elliott said on Wednesday.

The Briton suffered dizziness and fatigue after Sunday's race at the Hungaroring, the last before the August break, and said he suspected he was still feeling the effects of contracting COVID-19 in December.
