This year (2024) is my 3rd consecutive year, the previous 2 years we have passed 3 1 liter bottles of water and they have not told us anything, two sandwiches and snack bags, this last year (2023) the return was longer, the shuttle bus took you to Godollo and from there you had to take another train to Budapest, for me the previous way was better (shuttle bus to Kerepes and from there line 8 to Ors Veré Ter)

Having been there this year I would have to disagree that there are a lot of filling stations for water. There aren’t. And 1 hour before a track session, the queues for water was 45 mins! It’s a major major con. Allow people just a small 500ml bottle that they queue in 35 degree heat to refill… or charge them extortionate amounts for a warm bottle.

You need to read this post with all the travel info: https://f1destinations.com/getting-around-hungarian-f1-grand-prix/
You can’t take metro all the way to the track. Best is to get to Örs vezér tere, either by Metro or taxi. Then you take the regional train out to the circuit, followed by a shuttle bus.

In reply to Ansumi. Hello, you are not allowed to take in a backpack that weighs more than 20kg, so it should be quite small. Yes, you can take snacks inside with you. The regulations state you can only bring in one 500ml water bottle, but they do have a lot of free refill stations around the circuit.

Good day and thank you in advance for your help. I would like to know
1. Size of the backpack we can take with
2. Can we take some snacks with – I am diabetic and need some food and snacks frequently but do not want to stand in the que forever missing out on the GP
3. Also water – noted it must be in plastic bottle but 500ml in the hot and heat is nothing much. Can we take more than one 500ml bottled water?
Thank you and super excites

In reply to Richard. Take a look at flights to either Vienna or Bratislava, both are only a few hours from Budapest via road (car or bus), also trains available. And if you stay a day or two more you get to also check out another city.

In reply to Rosie CHARLTON. Hi Rosie, if you want the least hassle, take a taxi each day from one of the recognized companies and you should pay around 35 EUR each way. The taxis also use a special road so don't get stuck in traffic next to the circuit. More in Getting There & Around

We are staying close to the Chain Bridge in Budapest.
How is the best way to get to/from the circuit with the least hassle?
Can we pre book taxis each day?
Staying at the Sofitel and they dont actually help guests with transport ie no shared mini bus. They just quoted me for 400 euros for a private car each day to take us and stay and wait!?!
We have been to a few circuits but worried this one isnt as organised.Just 2 of us on this trip with SuperGold 3 day tix.
Thanks
Rosie
