The new main building aims to serve not just motorsport, but also conferences and other public gatherings, which shows how the venue is planning for the future.
A pair of new tunnels now connect the paddock directly to the grandstand, improving access and flow on race weekends. The main grandstand, located along the start-finish straight, has been completely redesigned and now offers covered seating for 10,000 spectators.
Hungary’s spot on the Formula 1 calendar is secure for years to come.
It includes a new terrace and upgraded commentator booths to improve the race experience for visitors and broadcasters.
Hungarian State Secretary for Sport, Adam Schmidt, said that the Hungarian Grand Prix has become an important part of the country’s culture and economy. Last year’s race brought in over 300,000 visitors, with around 80% coming from abroad.
The event generated more than 26 billion Hungarian forints, which is roughly €64 million, in economic impact—proving its value to both the region and the country’s government.
A new agreement signed in 2023 keeps the Grand Prix at the Hungaroring through at least 2032.
This was made possible by the ongoing upgrades, which were part of the negotiations to extend the race’s future in Hungary.
As crews push to finish the remaining work, the circuit is already looking ahead to a future filled with high-profile events. Both fans and teams will experience the refreshed Hungaroring at this summer’s 40th Hungarian Grand Prix, with even more enhancements set to arrive next year.
