Braking Po!nts
Note: Braking points in this guide are set for HOTLAP only.
In this Corner Guide you’ll find all the key details for every turn on the circuit – from braking points, recommended gears, to curb usage. Each corner is broken down so you know exactly where to brake, which gear to choose, and how to use the entry, inside, and exit curbs to maximize lap time.
Use this guide as your reference to master consistency, improve pace, and get the most out of every lap.

Setups
Here you can explore a complete collection of setups designed for every condition on track.Choose between Qualifying setups for maximum one-lap pace, Race setups for consistency and tyre management, or Wet setups to stay competitive in difficult conditions.
BrakePo+nt Setup → balanced downforce, offering a mix of speed and stability.
Safe Setup → highest downforce, best grip in corners, more stable but slower on straights.
Aggressive Setup → lowest downforce, fastest on straights, but harder to handle in corners.
If parc fermé is enabled, just skip qualifying and load the race setup straight away.

Grand Prix Strategy
The Grand Prix Strategy gives you everything you need to prepare for both qualifying and the race.
You’ll find details like outlap time, fuel load, starting tyre temperatures, and the best point to activate ERS in quali. For the race, you’ll get the expected laps at half distance, recommended fuel amount, pit stop time loss, and pit limiter speed. On the right, the tyre strategy shows the fastest option, an alternative plan, and a possible two-stop strategy – including exact pit windows to help you manage tyres and race pace.

Quali Usage:
For the fastest qualifying laps, it’s important to adapt your ERS mode to each section of the track. Smart energy management ensures you extract maximum performance across a single lap. Never use HOTLAP — only on long straights after pressing OVERTAKE, but it’s usually better to just stay on OVERTAKE longer.

Race Usage:
During the race, use OVERTAKE only in short bursts on the straights, keep MEDIUM active for most of the lap, and switch to NONE through corners to recover energy efficiently.
Circuit info
The Circuit Info section provides a quick overview of the track.
It includes the lap counts for race and sprint, total circuit length, number of DRS zones, and possible overtaking spots. You’ll also find the pole position side, reference AI lap time at 110%, and key ratings such as track grip, tyre wear, downforce level, and average speed.
Use this information to understand the character of the circuit and prepare your setups and strategy accordingly.

Tips and tricks

Setup tips:

Aerodynamics:
Run minimum downforce – top speed is the priority here.
Transmission:
Closed on-throttle diff for strong traction, but keep it more open on entry to aid rotation into slower corners.
Suspension:
Stiff enough to handle kerbs, yet soft enough to maintain traction out of the chicanes. A low ride height boosts straight-line speed, but avoid bottoming out over kerbs.
Brakes:
High brake pressure is essential to maximise stopping power into the heavy braking zones.

Race tips:

Top speed is everything – use full ERS and slipstream in qualifying and races.
Manage the heavy braking zones into the chicanes – stay precise to avoid lockups and penalties.
Be aggressive over the first curbs, but control the car to avoid losing traction on exit.
Strong exits from Lesmo 2 and Ascari are critical, as they lead onto long straights.
Stay smooth and controlled through Curva Grande to minimise tyre scrub.
A clean run through Parabolica is vital to maximise speed onto the main straight.
