The Hungarian government initially wanted to relive Budapest's old Nepliget park circuit for F1. However, they dropped the plan and began constructing Hungaroring in 1985. A year later, the circuit held its first F1 race. Williams' Nelson Piquet took home the prize.
Hungaroring is a challenging circuit, with few short straights available. There are several turns and corners for drivers to maneuver, but it is an exciting challenge that gets the best out of them.
