Lamborghini Huracan GT3 EVO2 Hungaroring HYMO Hot Lap Analysis
Let’s take a look at this hot lap of Hungaroring in the Lamborghini Huracan GT3 EVO2 driven by HYMO.
The Track
The Hungaroring, located in Mogyoród, Hungary, is renowned for its technical layout, characterised by a series of challenging corners and limited straight-line sections. The track's twisty nature demands a finely tuned car setup to effectively navigate the tight turns and elevation changes. Luckily HYMO has got you covered with the setup they used in the reference video HERE
Since it opened in 1986, the Hungaroring has been a regular spot for Formula 1 races. It's seen lots of exciting moments and races, and it's loved by drivers and fans. The track's challenges and pretty surroundings have made it a special place in racing history.
Analysis
Using the Track Titan software to compare the HYMO lap to a community lap we can see that the HYMO driver gains almost 0.2s because of 2 reasons. Let’s take a look.
Looking at the racing line, we can see that the HYMO driver (orange) takes a different line. The HYMO driver stays on the outside of the track all the time, until the turn-in point. On the other hand, the community driver slowly drifts to the inside of the corner before the turn-in point. For some corners, this is a great technique. however, for this 90-degree right-hander this isn’t the case. You want to maximise your exit speed by taking the fastest line possible. That’s not the only thing where we can see a difference. For the braking; the HYMO driver brakes earlier and trail brakes right up until the apex. This allows the HYMO driver to get on the throttle a little quicker.
