Hungaroringen

The Hungaroring is a Formula One motor racing circuit located in Mogyoród, Hungary, near Budapest. It was designed by István Koloss, and the construction was completed in 1986. The circuit is known for its tight, twisty, and dusty nature, which often makes overtaking difficult. The surface is characterized by low grip, especially early in a race weekend, leading to spectacular slides and mistakes from drivers.

The Hungaroring has hosted the Hungarian Grand Prix annually since 1986, making it one of the longest-serving venues on the Formula One calendar. Its location, a short distance from Budapest, has contributed to its popularity. The circuit is often described as a "stadium" circuit due to the surrounding hillsides that allow spectators to see a significant portion of the track. Despite the challenges for drivers, the Hungarian Grand Prix is generally well-attended and provides a unique challenge for teams and drivers alike. The circuit's layout has remained largely unchanged since its inception, though minor modifications have been made over the years to improve safety and spectator experience.
