Hungarian Grand Prix Budapest - July 24-26 2009
This weekend brings more exciting Formula 1 racing in this exciting Grand Prix season. Buckle up tight for all the action at the Hungaroring.
The circuit length is approx. 4.38 km (2.72 miles), so with 70 laps to cover in this race the drivers will complete a distance of just over 306 km (190 miles approx). The lap record is currently held by Michael Schumacher. Visit the official Formula 1 website for more information.
Practice begins on Friday, with practice and qualifying on Saturday, and the Grand Prix main event starts at 2pm local time (1pm UK time) on Sunday.
If you plan to travel to the race, don’t forget to take along your European Health Insurance Card (EHIC), which is valid in Hungary. However, remember that the EHIC is not a substitute for travel insurance (for example, the EHIC does not cover lost luggage, medical repatriation, ongoing medical treatment, non-urgent treatment, etc.)
