Uncharted MotoGP venue eyed as an opportunity by one manufacturer
The upcoming Hungarian Grand Prix at Balaton Park is seen as an opportunity for Honda to move “closer to the front” by 2020 world champion Joan Mir. Hungary last hosted MotoGP in 1992 at the Hungaroring, with a failed attempt to return in 2010 at the Balatonring. Following safety modifications, MotoGP will finally return to Hungary at the new Balaton Park track this weekend. Despite limited MotoGP experience at the venue, expectations are high for an exciting race weekend. Joan Mir is optimistic about the unique and technical Balaton Park circuit, aiming to capitalize on the new track to improve Honda’s performance. Riders anticipate a challenging but rewarding weekend, eager to showcase their skills to new fans and supporters. The circuit’s design favors good turning over high speeds, which could play to Honda’s strengths in the races ahead.
