MNASZ

What MNASZ does

MNASZ (Magyar Nemzeti Autósport Szövetség, Hungarian National Motorsports Federation) is the sole FIA-affiliated national federation governing motorsport in Hungary. Registered as a nonprofit organization (registration 01-07-0000082, tax number 19234168-2-42) headquartered at the Hungarian Sport House, Istvánmezei út 1-3, Budapest, the federation holds exclusive statutory authority to sanction FIA-coded national championships, issue competition licenses, homologate vehicles, and certify sport officials across 10 motorsport disciplines: rally (ORB, ORC, Historic, Rally2, Sprint), circuit racing and hill climb, rallycross, autocross, terrain rally, karting, slalom, drag, drift, and simulator racing. It serves approximately 150+ member organizations (tagszervezetek), individual competitors across all skill levels, and a trained cadre of sport officials, stewards, and race directors.

The federation operates a unified service platform rather than a single product. Core technology assets include the MNASZ E-ügyvitel (electronic administration system) for member licensing and registrations, the MNASZ Gépkönyvek (vehicle homologation database at ios.mnasz.hu) for technical inspections, and a re-established ATB Hotline (weekdays 16:00-19:00) for technical rule interpretation. Product launches in 2025-2026 expanded the surface into e-sports: a dedicated Simulator Discipline Committee (March 2025), a 3,000 Ft simulator racing license (November 2025), and Hungarian participation in the FIA Esports Global Rally Tour on the Assetto Corsa Rally platform. Distribution is primarily direct to member organizations and individual competitors, supplemented by an online portal, a twice-weekly newsletter to 580 subscribers, social channels (YouTube @mnasz.official, Flickr), and a 2026 Telekom media partnership for live event broadcasting.

Revenue mechanics are diversified across license fees (simulator racing 3,000 Ft, sport official training 38,500 Ft), Magyar Autóklub competitor memberships (8,990 Ft annual, bundled with breakdown assistance and partner discounts), monthly website and newsletter banner advertising (468x60 and 468x120 pixel placements), championship and event sanctioning fees, and state sponsorship (notably HUMDA Zrt. support for ORB/ORC and historic rally championships). The organization employs approximately 19 staff, is led by President Szujó Zoltán and Secretary General Kis György, and is currently navigating governance turbulence following the April 2026 resignation of Gyulay Zsolt from the Executive Committee, an extraordinary general meeting in June 2026, and an ongoing criminal investigation by the National Tax and Customs Administration Criminal Directorate regarding 150 million HUF in state funding for the 2020 Rally European Championship.
