AC GPK Hungaroring
(2023 update version 2.0)
Sausage kerbs
The tires at the inside of corners for preventing cutting corners are replaced by sausage kerbs. These will still prevent you from cutting corners, but when hitting them it will be less dramatic.
3d trees
The old 2d trees are replaced by the newest 3d trees. For seeing these trees you need to have Content Shaders Patch version 0.1.79 (or later) installed. With older CSP versions or no CSP you will still see the old 2d trees. We have tested the impact on FPS, and in our tests it had no significant impact.
Track lights
Not all older GPK tracks did have track lights. With the 2023 updates all tracks will have track lights.
FSGP 2023
During every Formula 1 weekend in 2023 we organize a FSGP race in the MAD Formula MFT02 on the GPK version of the Formula 1 circuit. Information can be found at simracinggp Formula Student community.
For every FSGP race there will be released a new 2023 update of the GPK track.
The Track
Bernie Ecclestone wanted a race in the USSR, but it became a race in Budapest. Then he wanted a Monaco like street circuit in Budapest's largest park Népliget, but it became the Hungaroring. The Hungary Grand Prix replaced the Dutch Grand Prix in 1986. The track is situated in a valley, spectators can see a big part of the track from one position. It is very difficult to overtake on this track, and drivers like it or hate it.
Grand Prix Karting
Grand Prix Karting tracks are F1 tracks with the layout of the original F1 track but the size, look and feel of real world karttracks. No big runoff areas, but modern wide kerbs, pit not on the infield but on the outside of the track, not many grand stands but a pitbuilding which is also a grandstand. These tracks are not a resized conversion of existing tracks but scratch build. Not laser scanned (because they are fiction) but handmade, which was a bit of a challenge with some tracks with a lot of elevation in the track and the terrain surrounding the track.

Formula Student
Formula Student is a competition involving universities from all over the world.
