Balaton's great opportunity! It was announced yesterday, that the spanish investor group, Sedesa is building a new racetrack called Balatonring 25 kms from Keszthely, the capitol of Lake Balaton, where MotoGP races will be organized as early as next year, and races will surely be held every year until 2013.

Another positive factor is that the race will be organized close to Lake Balaton, as it would increase attractiveness of the lake as holiday destination, and in long term it will affect very positively the property market of the lake!
