DAMPERS

AERO

• Front Wing: 2 (minimum, low drag)
• Rear Wing: 3 (minimum stable downforce for Parabolica exit)
• Downforce Level: Low package — as per class spec
• Brake Ducts: F: 3 / R: 3 (minimal cooling, low drag priority)

KEY SETUP NOTE

• This low-downforce Milano GT55 is drag-limited on Monza's long straights — every click of rear wing costs top speed at the line, so the setup leans on mechanical grip (soft front ARB, higher front wheel rate balance) to generate chicane rotation that the thin aero package can't provide.

TRACK GUIDE

• T1/2 Rettifilo: brake at the 100m board, trail brake deep to rotate the nose — the low rear wing means less stability under trail-braking, so be progressive on release to avoid snap oversteer over the kerbs.
• Curva Grande: flat or near-flat in top gear — trust the front end, this is a commitment corner where lifting costs more than it saves.
• Lesmo 1/2: sacrifice a fraction of Lesmo 1 entry speed for a clean, early throttle application — Lesmo 2 exit speed feeds the entire back straight to Ascari, this is a major lap time zone.
• Ascari chicane: stay flat and stable over the kerbs — soft-ish dampers here absorb the bumps without unsettling the car mid-chicane; any imbalance costs time onto the straight.
• Parabolica: this is THE lap-time corner — patient entry, get the car rotated early with front grip, then unleash full power from apex; exit speed here compounds all the way down the pit straight.

THEORETICAL BEST LAP

• 1:47.900 — theoretical optimal sector composite, dry, low-fuel,
