‘Never a Dull Moment at the ‘Ring’
From her many visits to the Hungaroring, Renáta is the perfect person to describe what makes this venue so special. She agrees that it is an underrated race location, even if she struggles to understand why!
“I have been on many other racetracks and maybe I’m saying it because this is my home race, but it’s really unique!” she says.
“If you come here as a tourist, you can also enjoy one of the best cities of Europe, Budapest, as it’s so close to the track.
“If we look back to the race history there have also been many first wins here, for the likes of Damon Hill, Fernando Alonso, or Jenson Button.”
So Many Reasons to Love the Hungarian GP
The list feels never ending when I asked Renáta what makes the Hungaroring so special.
“There’s an exciting layout and great races, you get around the whole track with your tickets, good food, perfect organisation, a beautiful capital city nearby, kind people, calm but great fans, plus value for money.”
There is also lots of redevelopment that has been done ahead of this weekend’s race, including work to the main grandstand, the paddock and main building.
It has been a huge task for the circuit but will be great for both the fans, the teams, and members of the media as the championship will race there until 2032.
As for the best place to watch the action? Renáta says her favourite spot is the final corner - up on the hill, offering a view of over a third of the track.
