Tracks & Advices
Fiorano
The Fiorano circuit is an extremely demanding track, to test all kinds of corners and driving situations.
The first corner is driven in second gear at around 80 km/h (1), followed by an S-bend in 4th at 180/190 km/h (2). The right-hand corner just before the bridge is extremely difficult and has to be driven without hesitation, while there's also a small bump on the track (3). The corner after the bridge is a blind corner, followed by a straight and the track's slowest corner with 180°, taken in first gear at around 50 km/h (4).
Now you have to accelerate getting ready for the track's fastest section (5) and a corner taken with an open throttle - 6th gear and 240 km/h (6); the last left-hand corner is taken in second gear, while you have to exit it in 3rd (7) . This corner has a wide exit, to exploit the racing line arriving on the main straight.
The Fiorano circuit is extremely hard on the brakes, the transmission, the gearbox and the driveshaft. This is an extremely demanding track for the drivers, who are always at the limit without the possibility to relax.
