KEY SETUP NOTE

  • Monza rewards minimum drag above all else — this car's fixed-spec aero means your only real trim tool is rear wing angle, so run it as low as the chicane kerbs and Parabolica stability will tolerate; the lap is won on straight-line speed between Rettifilo and Ascari, not mid-corner grip.

TRACK GUIDE

  • Rettifilo (T1/2): brake as late as possible from 330+ km/h, trail brake slightly to rotate the nose — carry min speed low but exit wide and flat, don't unsettle the car on the far kerb.
  • Curva Grande (T3): flat or near-flat in top gear — trust the rear, this is a courage corner, not a setup corner.
  • Roggia (T4/5): second heavy brake zone — straight-line brake, release smoothly to avoid trail-braking snap oversteer on the low-fuel light rear.
  • Lesmo 1&2: sacrifice Lesmo 1 entry rotation slightly to protect Lesmo 2 exit — exit speed here feeds the entire back straight, this is where lap time is truly won.
  • Ascari chicane: stay flat and stable over the kerbs — small steering inputs only, momentum through here matters more than outright rotation.
  • Parabolica: late apex, get on power early even if it costs entry speed — this corner dictates main straight speed and your lap time.

THEORETICAL BEST LAP

  • 1:46.800 — theoretical optimal sector composite, Ferrari 488 Challenge Evo, dry/green track, AC Evo physics.

REAL WORLD RECORD

  • No official record (488 Challenge Evo is a bespoke sim-only variant, no real-world homologated class record applies).

SIM RACING RECORD
