Summary:
The lack of straights at the Hungaroring often sees it compared to a karting circuit - and it's true, the resemblance is uncanny. With several series of corners to string together, teams opt for Monaco levels of downforce, with a well-sorted chassis tending to be rewarded over horsepower given the short straights on offer. It's a challenge many of the drivers relish, however, with finding a good rhythm key to setting fast lap times.
