HUNGARORING CLASSIC (Peter Auto)
New event. Just getting there will be a challenge! And they don't use the Euro as currency....

Florints obtained, Hungarian road tolls sorted, new atlas and maps purchased, so let the adventure begin! It's actually no more of a trip than Portimao from N France (or Paul Ricard to Portimao next month) but in another direction.....
From the paddock and boxes allocation, Grid sizes look smaller than usual for Peter Auto, but not yet seen actual entry lists. Now need to learn hello, thank you and beer please in Hungarian...... |

I just assumed the dislike of Porsche’s had got us excluded before we even got to scrutineering!!!

Looks very nice. I'll be gigging in a field in Kent.
Will, Maybe they thought you were one of those Porsche drivers with a propensity for pirouetting at 80 mph in the middle of the track to deploy your DRS |

I am not sure that we have sufficient skills to deploy such a manoeuvre!!!!!

Well, looks like most have made it, several from the UK with stories to tell about their journey! Weather so far is gentle September sun and cool nights, just like UK should be this time of year. Circuit has good free wifi and excellent facilities, so impressed so far. Bit of a hiccough when I was told the truck would need to be parked about a mile from the paddock. After some strong insistence that it was not acceptable, now have good spot behind boxes and close to toilets. Pays to get to circuits early!
Late to the party are the French Sunoco trucks, which were rumoured to being held by customs at the Hungarian border. Hope they're here now as free practice at 0900 and no fuel in cars...... |
