Telemetry Data

Suspension

[!] The car can exhibit a tendency to understeer mid-corner if the rear is too stiff or oversteer on corner entry if the front is too soft.

Adjusting spring rates and damping to balance grip between front and rear. Slightly softer front springs and stiffer rear springs can help rotate the car.

Front Ride Height

-5mm

Rear Ride Height

-3mm

Anti-Roll Bars

[!] Excessive body roll can lead to unpredictable handling and reduced grip, especially when transitioning between turns.

Stiffen the ARBs to reduce body roll and improve responsiveness. A stiffer rear ARB can help counter oversteer.

Front ARB

4

Rear ARB

5

Differential

[!] The default differential can be too aggressive, causing snap oversteer on corner exit or understeer on corner entry.

Tuning the LSD to provide smoother power delivery and better stability. Reducing initial torque and acceleration sensitivity can tame the rear.

Initial Torque

12

Accel Sensitivity

28

Decel Sensitivity

12

Brakes

The car has strong brakes, but a slight bias towards the rear can help with turn-in.

[!] Track Analysis — Red Bull Ring

Turn 1-2 Complex (Remus & Rothmans)

Downshift to 2nd for Turn 1, 3rd for Turn 2.

Heavy braking zone into a sharp right-hander followed by a quick left-hander

Brake hard and late for Turn 1, aiming for a late apex to carry momentum through the left-hand Turn 2. Trail brake into Turn 1 to help rotate the car, then get on the power early for Turn 2, being mindful of track limits.

Turn 3-4 (Hella-Pag)

3rd gear for both corners.

Uphill right-hander followed by a downhill left-hander

Maintain a consistent line through the uphill Turn 3, looking to get a good run onto the short straight. For Turn 4, brake firmly and carry good speed, being aware of the downhill gradient which can unsettle the car. The key is smooth inputs.

Turn 8-9 (Castrol Edge)

Downshift to 3rd for Turn 8, stay in 3rd or briefly shift to 4th depending on car speed for Turn 9.

Double apex right-hander

This is a crucial section for lap time. Brake before Turn 8, taking a wider entry to hit the first apex. Short shift or short coast through the middle to set up for the second, tighter apex of Turn 9. Get on the power as early as possible, but be smooth to avoid wheelspin on the exit.
