2009 DATA
The twisting, 14-corner layout of the Hungaroring features just one legitimate overtaking opportunity per lap, into Turn One. Apart from this straight of just over 700 metres, the circuit is filled with sequences of low to medium-speed corners, with short braking distances which make overtaking nearly impossible. The result is that the teams all run with maximum downforce levels, similar if not identical to those used in Monaco, in order to optimise not just cornering speeds, but also braking and traction. Maximum speeds achieved on the main straight rarely exceed 300 km/h with the V8 engines.
