Pagani Huayra

TYRES

• Semislick, Front 27.5 PSI cold (target ~31 PSI hot), Rear 26.5 PSI cold (target ~30 PSI hot). No blankets assumed — first lap must build temp through Schumacher-S and Mercedes-Kurve before pushing.

ELECTRONICS

• TC: 2, ABS: 3, Engine Braking: 3 (medium, stabilizes rear into Motodrom), Brake Bias: 53.5% front

• // REAR
• Ride Height: 78 mm
• Wheel Rate RL / RR: 98000 / 98000 N/m

DAMPERS

AERO

• Front splitter: 2 (of available steps), Rear wing: 6, Active aero behavior left stock (Huayra's flaps auto-adjust) — run slightly more rear bias to tame high-speed instability through Mercedes-Kurve and the back straight kink.

KEY SETUP NOTE

• The Huayra's active aero flaps shift balance mid-corner, so the mechanical setup must be slightly oversprung at the rear (relative to a pure track car) to stop the back end going light when the flaps deploy under braking — this is more critical than chasing ultimate mechanical grip numbers.

TRACK GUIDE

• Motodrom (T1): brake late in a straight line, let the active aero/ABS do the work, trail brake just enough to rotate — don't overslow, this car doesn't need a slow entry.
• Schumacher-S (T3): commit to a firm, early turn-in on entry — the front needs load transferred before direction change or it pushes wide; small steering inputs, no correction.
• Dunlop hairpin (T5) and Bit-Kurve (T11): these are where lap time lives — get on throttle progressively from apex, diff power setting (0.60) prevents wheelspin but still allow some rotation; too much patience here costs more than late braking elsewhere.
• Veedol chicane (T13): sacrifice nothing on exit — a tenth lost here costs three on the back straight; take a slightly wider, faster line through rather than a tight apex.
• Ford-Kurve (T18): late apex, get the car pointed early for the run into the stadium — traction out of this corner matters more than the entry speed.
