Aerodynamics:
Silverstone favours a medium–low aero setup – you need straight-line speed without losing stability in fast corners.
Transmission:
A higher on-throttle diff provides strong drive through the quicker turns.
Suspension:
A stiff and balanced suspension keeps the car responsive through high-speed direction changes.
Brakes:
Lower brake bias improves stability when entering the fast braking zones.
Tyres:
Tyre wear is high here – manage pressures carefully to avoid overheating across a lap.
Precision is key through the fast corners – small mistakes cost significant time.
Keep smooth throttle and steering inputs to maintain balance at high speed.
Carry momentum through Copse, Maggots, and Becketts, as this section defines lap time.
Prioritise clean exits from slow corners like Village and Brooklands to set up long straights.
Avoid overdriving – consistency through the flowing sections is more important than aggression.
A strong exit from Club is crucial to maximise speed onto the start–finish straight.
