• Compound: Dry (Medium) — Monza low-drag, moderate deg track
• Front pressure: 2.00 bar
• Rear pressure: 1.95 bar
• Tyre blanket temp: 80°C
• Optimal operating window: 85–100°C for peak grip (front and rear)

ELECTRONICS

• TC: 4

• Brake Pressure: 96%
• Brake Bias: F: 58% / R: 42%

DRIVETRAIN

• Fuel Map: Map 3 — balanced fuel/power mix for race stint management, slight lean from qualifying map to preserve consumption over distance
• Gear Ratios:
• 1st: 3.21
• 2nd: 2.48
• 3rd: 1.98
• 4th: 1.67
• 5th: 1.43
• 6th: 1.21
• Final Drive: 3.44 — optimized for Monza's long straights, minimizing drag at top speed through Parabolica exit and down the main straight

DAMPERS

AERO

• Front Splitter: 2 (low, minimum drag setting)
• Rear Wing: 3 (out of typical 1–10 range — low-drag Monza configuration)
• Downforce Level: Low — prioritize top speed on straights, accept slight instability in Ascari/Parabolica for straight-line gain
• Brake Ducts: Front 4 / Rear 3 (moderate cooling, sufficient for heavy braking zones without overheating brakes across race stint)

KEY SETUP NOTE

• The M6 GT3 at Monza lives and dies by rear stability under braking and minimum drag on the straights — run the lowest wing angle you can control through Ascari and Parabolica, and lean on the diff coast setting (0.35) to help rotate the car into the chicanes without snap oversteer; aggressive late braking will punish a diff that's too locked on entry.

TRACK GUIDE

• T1/2 (Rettifilo): Brake as late as physically possible from 335km/h+, trail brake deep to rotate the car — the M6's strong front end under brakes allows aggressive late entry, but respect the inside kerb, it unsettles the rear if hit square.
• T4/5 (Roggia): Second heavy braking zone — carry slightly more speed than T1 since exit onto the back straight matters more than entry aggression; sacrifice a touch of entry for a cleaner exit line.
• Lesmo 1 & 2: Lesmo 1 rewards late, committed braking and strong front grip for rotation; Lesmo 2 is where understeer creeps in — be patient on throttle application, early throttle here kills exit speed onto the straight to Ascari.
• Ascari Chicane: This is a lap-time defining sequence — stay flat and stable over the kerbs, minimize steering input, and prioritize a clean exit over outright entry speed since it feeds the long straight.
• Parabolica: The most important corner on the lap — late apex, progressive throttle, and maximum exit speed carries all the way down the main straight; sacrificing minimum time here costs tenths at the line, not hundredths.
