Internet security billionaire Eugene Kaspersky has insisted that it would be possible to hack into a Formula 1 car.
Hackers recently discovered a bug in the entertainment system in a Jeep Cherokee, allowing them to control the car's brakes from more than 10 miles away using a laptop.
The Russian businessman, who launched Kaspersky Anti-Virus in 1997, told The Mirror: "The race is well protected, it is hard to hack, but the rest of Formula 1 faces those problems.
"We have no evidence of anyone hacking a race car so far but when it is in the pits and connected to another computer connected to the internet then, yes, it is possible.
"All the systems around us are vulnerable, unfortunately, it is possible to hack anything."
Formula 1 is in Budapest for the Hungarian Grand Prix this weekend.
