By Ryan Tveter, FIA Formula 3 European Championship Driver The recently repaved Hungaroring made for some exciting racing this past weekend in Budapest. The fastest time from the weekend was just over 2 seconds quicker than the pole time set by Esteban Ocon in 2014, the last time the FIA F3 series visited the circuit. From the beginning of the test day on Wednesday the track continued to get better and better as more and more Hankook rubber was laid down on the freshly surfaced tarmac. This culminated with theRead More

Unfortunately a small error on a veryRead More
