The Hungarian Grand Prix will remain on the Formula One calendar until at least 2016 after F1 officials agreed to extend their contract with the circuit.
The announcement followed a meeting between Hungary’s sport minister and F1 boss Bernie Ecclestone.
The Hungaroring track made its F1 debut in 1986, becoming the first venue behind the former Iron Curtain to stage a race. The track is located within a natural valley that makes it popular with fans who are able to see large sections of the track from the grandstands.
