Aerodynamics:
Hungary demands one of the highest downforce setups in the calendar, giving maximum grip through the twisty sections.
Transmission:
Reduce off-throttle diff to improve rotation and responsiveness.
Suspension:
A soft rear suspension setup helps the car rotate more easily through the slower corners.
Brakes:
A rearward brake bias works well here, as the slower speeds make front lockups less likely.
Tyres:
Tyre wear can rise quickly in DRS trains – raise pressures if needed to keep them under control.
High downforce is essential, as the track is tight and twisty with almost no straights.
Smooth and precise steering helps maintain rhythm through the flowing middle sector.
Be careful with kerb usage – some can help rotation, but overusing them unsettles the car.
Traction management out of the slow corners is key to consistency and tyre life.
Avoid overdriving – the circuit rewards patience and control more than aggression.
A clean exit from the final corner is crucial to maximise speed down the main straight.
