HRE – these three letters stand for the Hungarian Racing Engineering Team. Last year, the team made its debut in the IDM. Now the story continues. Regular rider Máté Számadó scored five championship points in the IDM Supersport 300 at the Lausitzring. But there’s much more at stake. The Hungarian HRE Team chose Germany’s top road racing series for an entirely different reason.
Saturday afternoon was a celebration for the team: Máté Számadó scored points on the Kawasaki Ninja 400 in the junior class. Team leader Károly Lévay explains: “What makes our team special, however, is that we don’t just focus on racing, but also on training mechanics. We also teach students from Széchenyi István University in Győr and let them experience firsthand what it’s really like at the racetrack. This includes the mechanics’ work from A to Z, but it’s also about team spirit and organization.” Speaking of Máté Számadó, he states clearly: “He finished 2021 in 13th place overall. We expect him to secure a better position by the end of the season!”
