• Compound: Soft (Hypersoft equivalent)
• Front Pressure: 1.72 bar
• Rear Pressure: 1.68 bar
• Tyre Blanket Temp: 90°C (F & R)

ELECTRONICS

• TC: 1 (minimal, driver-controlled slip for traction zones)
• ABS: N/A (not equipped)
• Engine Braking Map: 2 (reduced, aids rear stability into Senna S / Bico de Pato)
• Brake Pressure: 98%
• Brake Bias: F 54.5% / R 45.5%

DRIVETRAIN

• Fuel Map: Map 1 — full aggressive combustion, max power delivery, qualifying-only (fuel load 5kg — out lap + 1 hot lap)
• Gear Ratios:
• 1st: 3.10
• 2nd: 2.55
• 3rd: 2.14
• 4th: 1.83
• 5th: 1.58
• 6th: 1.38
• Final Drive: 3.65 (short final drive for Ferradura/Junção traction, accept lower top speed on main straight)

SUSPENSION

• // FRONT

• ARB: 1200 N/m
• Brake Torque Multiplier: 100%
• Brake Bias: 54.5%
• // REAR
• Ride Height: 45 mm
• Wheel Rate RL / RR: 120,000 N/m / 120,000 N/m
• ARB: 900 N/m
• Diff Preload: 55 Nm

• Diff Power: 0.35

DAMPERS

AERO

• Front Wing: 9 (high downforce bias for Senna S/Ferradura rotation)
• Rear Wing: 11 (maximize traction off Junção and Ferradura, accept straight-line loss)
• Downforce Level: High-configuration (Interlagos is short lap, corner-dominant — traction > top speed)
• Brake Ducts: Front 3 / Rear 4 (moderate cooling, short lap doesn't overheat brakes on quali run)

KEY SETUP NOTE

• Interlagos is a traction-dominated, anti-clockwise circuit — the entire lap is defined by getting hard, early throttle down at Ferradura and Junção without wheelspin, since both feed long uphill runs. Sacrifice a fraction of top speed on the pit straight for a rear wing/diff setup that lets you get flat-throttle 3-4 meters earlier out of these two corners — this compounds massively over the uphill run to Turn 14 and the run to Bico de Pato.

TRACK GUIDE

• Senna S (T1/2): Brake extremely late in a straight line,
