Szia Hungary with Mehul

This week on F101 with Friends, we’re off to Budapest — a city full of charm, and a circuit that’s anything but easy. I’m joined by Mehul to unpack the Hungarian Grand Prix and why the Hungaroring, shaped like a knife resting on a boot, forces teams into precision mode from the very start.With tight corners, barely any overtaking zones, and relentless heat, it’s a track where downforce is maxed, tyres are babied, and strategy takes center stage. We get into the key moments from the 2024 race — Hamilton’s return to glory and Papaya Rules.We also chat about what makes Hungary so punishing for drivers and engineers alike, why qualifying is everything here, and how this slow-speed maze somehow keeps delivering high-stakes drama year after year.Instagram - @F101withFriends or https://www.instagram.com/f101withfriends/https://www.formula1.com/en/racing/2025/hungaryhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hungarian_Grand_Prixhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hungaroring#https://www.formula1.com/en/latest/article/30-memorable-hungarian-grand-prix-moments-.4r4Ejop9lVaZTD3hpWLDBx https://www.formula1.com/en/latest/article/piastri-wins-hungarian-grand-prix-as-norris-belatedly-hands-back-lead-in.70F4mNzYrbmvNYaj8KXm18
