Mercedes-AMG GT3 Evo

TYRES

• Slicks (dry compound), Front: 26.5 PSI, Rear: 26.2 PSI, blanket temp: 80°C. Optimal operating window for max grip: 85–100°C (front and rear) — single-lap attack target is to flash just into this window on the out-lap, peaking on the flying lap.

ELECTRONICS

• TC1: 3, TC2: 1, ABS: 4, Brake Bias: 54% front, Engine Braking/Brake Magic: medium-low (2/6) to aid rotation on trail-brake

SUSPENSION

• // FRONT
• Ride Height: 50 mm
• Wheel Rate FL / FR: 145000 N/m / 145000 N/m
• ARB: 110 N/m
• Brake Torque Multiplier: 100%
• Brake Bias: 54%
• // REAR
• Ride Height: 55 mm
• Wheel Rate RL / RR: 130000 N/m / 130000 N/m
• ARB: 85 N/m
• Diff Preload: 50 Nm
• Diff Coast: 0.3
• Diff Power: 0.6

DAMPERS

AERO

• Front Splitter: 5 (max-attack, aggressive), Rear Wing: 7, Downforce Level: high-biased rear-to-front ratio for Spitzkehre traction and Arena stability, Brake Ducts: N/A (not adjustable on this GT3 model in RRRE)

KEY SETUP NOTE

• Lower coast diff lock (0.3) combined with slightly softer rear ARB (85 N/m) is the single biggest lap-time lever here — it unlocks rotation on T1 and the Spitzkehre entry without sacrificing the power-down stability this long-wheelbase car needs exiting the hairpin onto the Motodrom straight, which is the longest flat-out stretch on track.

TRACK GUIDE

• T1 Einfahrt Motodrom: brake later than feels safe but trail-brake progressively — carry speed in, rotate mid-corner, get back to power early for the short straight into T6.
• Mercedes Arena (T6-T9): commit on entry, minimize steering corrections — the stiffer rear setup rewards a single clean arc; any mid-corner correction here costs multiple tenths through the flowing S-section.
• T11 Spitzkehre: this is where the lap is won or lost — brake deep and straight-line the car fully before turn-in, prioritize a clean, early, full-throttle exit over outright entry speed, since the full Motodrom straight follows.
• T13/14 Einfahrt Motodrom final complex: late apex, get the power down early — exit speed onto the pit straight matters more than entry speed given the long following straight.
• Overall: this is a short, low-corner-count lap — every braking zone must be maximized since there are only 2 real braking events (T1 and Spitzkehre) that define 90% of lap time variance.
