How to see the Hungaroring for free?
I am almost always leaving my country to do some F1 adventures, but I thought why not explore my surroundings here in Hungary. So I decided to check the renovation of the Hungaroring and see from above how they are doing. I could do this, because right next to the Hungaroring, there is a smaller…

F1 Exhibition in London aka Ups I did it again
I have gone to the F1 Exhibition in Vienna, and just because the exhibition moved to London and I also happened to be in London, well, I decided to check it out one more time. Especially because I knew that some of the featured cars are different. In Vienna, it took me 3 hours (even…

Guenther Steiner: Unfiltered
After Surviving to Drive, the next Guenther book can’t come soon enough, especially when he got sacked. Was it everything I hoped for? Well, given that I’d happily listen to the man explain the recipe of toast, I don’t think I had very big expectations other than just him telling his perspective in his usual…

The cradle of motorsport
Every time I visit England, I am blown away at the sheer amount of motorsport related activities and places. I should not be, I guess given how many English car manufacturers are based there and all the history and tradition that surrounds England. Yet, here I am – one day wondering where I should go…

My dates with Guenther Steiner
The whole reason for my visiting England was that Guenther Steiner started touring the United Kingdom with this thing called “An Evening/Afternoon with Guenther Steiner” – it is his booktour basically. My take on this was that he is hilarious, I don’t even care what he is talking about, even if he just explains how…

Visiting Monza
Monza has been on my radar for a very long time (I mean, I’m an F1 fan for abour a year, but about 10 month of that year, I have been wanting to go to Monza). Good thing is that it is quite accessible, it’s near Milan, there is great public transport there and there…

What to read if you are interested in Red Bull Racing?
I am living in my Red Bull era these days, and also this year is their 20th season, so I think it is reasonable that I wanted to learn a bit more about their history. I recommend these two! Red Bulletin – 20 Laps around the Sun: I accidentally saw it in a supermarket in…

Book review: The Formula
When I started reading this book, I thought it was like Drive to Survive, but in a book form: showing us the heroes of F1 and explaining how looking for loopholes in the regulations advances the technology of the everyday world – and it 100% appealed to my idealist personality. Then somewhere around the part…
