FIA monitoring Hungaroring surface concerns
The FIA is monitoring the Hungaroring’s resurfaced sections after drivers complained about bumps and the asphalt breaking up, with officials keen to avoid a Monaco-style stoppage if the surface deteriorates further. The Race reports stones are coming loose at the final corner, leaving a rough, dirty off-line surface and forcing drivers away from the apex. After concerns were raised in Friday’s drivers’ briefing, race director Rui Marques and other officials inspected the circuit and organisers worked to compress bumps in key areas, including at Turn 1.
