Copa Uno

TYRES

• Slick compound, Front: 2.05 bar, Rear: 1.97 bar (cold set targets to reach ~2.09–2.10F / 2.01–2.02R hot, matching reference lap with minimal fuel/low-energy qualifying run), tyre blanket temp: 80°C if allowed by session rules, otherwise N/A.

ELECTRONICS

• TC: 0 (Copa Uno has no driver TC — fixed spec, ignore)
• ABS: 0 (not equipped on this car — fixed spec)
• Brake Pressure: 100%
• Engine Braking: fixed/spec (no adjustment available)
• Brake Bias: F: 38% / R: 62% (as per reference hot lap)

DRIVETRAIN

• Fuel Map: Map 1 — fixed map, no adjustable engine modes on Copa Uno (spec series)
• Gear Ratios (fixed final drive spec car, standard Velopark-optimized ratios):
• 1st: 3.181
• 2nd: 2.105
• 3rd: 1.577
• 4th: 1.286
• 5th: 1.097
• Final Drive: 3.727

SUSPENSION

• // FRONT

DAMPERS

AERO

• Fixed spec bodywork — no adjustable wing elements on Copa Uno. Front splitter and rear spoiler angles are homologated and non-adjustable. Brake ducts: N/A (not equipped).

KEY SETUP NOTE

• The Copa Uno is a mechanical-grip, fixed-aero spec car — nearly all lap time at Velopark comes from mechanical balance (ARB/damper tuning) and brake bias; with a forward bias of only 38% front, be ready for heavy rear rotation under trail-braking into Turns 1 and 4 — use this to your advantage for rotation but don't overdo initial brake input or the rear will snap on corner entry.

TRACK GUIDE

• Turn 1 (heavy braking zone after start/finish straight): brake late but progressively — the low front bias means early lockup risk is low, but trail-brake smoothly to rotate the car without upsetting rear stability.
• Esses (middle sector): carry momentum through the direction changes; minimize steering corrections, let the chassis roll naturally — this is where tenths are won through smooth hands.
• Final hairpin before the pit straight: get on the power early even if it costs a slightly wider exit line — Velopark's short pit straight rewards traction over outright corner speed.
• Kerb usage: attack curbs aggressively on apex-exit kerbs in the infield section — the Copa Uno's suspension travel and low ride height tolerate aggressive kerb strikes well, use this for extra rotation and shorter lines.
• Tyre temperature window: with such a short, technical lap, get heat into the fronts in sector 1 with a couple of deliberate steering loads before your quali lap — cold front tyres cost significant time in the esses.
