Aerodynamics:
Minimal aero is preferred here due to the long straights, keeping drag as low as possible.
Transmission:
An aggressive on-throttle diff helps maximise drive out of faster corners.
Suspension:
A less aggressive setup works best – low rake to cut drag combined with a stiff suspension for stability.
Brakes:
Adjust brake bias through the lap, using more forward bias into the heavy braking zones.
Tyres:
Running higher pressures helps limit tyre wear and reduces rolling drag on the straights.
Stay smooth through Eau Rouge and Raidillon, trust the downforce but avoid aggressive kerb usage.
Focus on a clean exit from La Source and Les Combes, as both lead onto long straights.
Carry momentum through the flowing corners like Pouhon and Blanchimont – precision is more important than aggression.
Manage braking carefully into the Bus Stop chicane to avoid lockups and set up the main straight.
Use all the track available, but stay within limits to avoid invalid laps.
Balance risk and control, as Spa rewards consistency over pushing too hard.
