Red Bull RB19

TYRES

• Compound: C2 (Hard) – race distance primary; C3 (Medium) for alternate stint if 2-stop
• Front Pressure: 24.5 PSI
• Rear Pressure: 22.0 PSI
• Tyre Blanket Temp: 80°C (front) / 80°C (rear)
• Optimal Operating Window: 90–105°C (peak mechanical grip; above 110°C grip drops sharply due to thermal degradation, below 85°C grip and warm-up suffer)

DAMPERS

AERO

• Front Wing: 25
• Rear Wing: 28
• Downforce Level: Medium-High (Silverstone demands aero stability through Maggotts-Becketts)
• Brake Ducts: Front 25 / Rear 30

KEY SETUP NOTE

• Silverstone's high-speed direction changes (Maggotts-Becketts-Chapel) punish low rear wing settings with instability under aggressive rotation — run slightly higher rear wing than typical RB19 "low drag" philosophy to keep rear planted through this sequence, sacrificing a small amount of Hangar Straight speed for consistent lap-after-lap confidence under tyre degradation.

TRACK GUIDE

• Maggotts-Becketts-Chapel: commit early, trust the aero platform — lift-and-coast through here kills your lap; carry momentum with smooth, continuous steering inputs rather than sharp late-apex corrections
• Copse: flat-out in high-speed aggressive style, but respect tyre temps — front-left under immense load, manage over a race stint by not overdriving entry
• Stowe-Vale-Club complex: traction out of Vale is critical for Wellington Straight speed; get the power down early with the high diff power setting, avoid wheelspin on exit
• Brooklands/Luffield: late braking here is tempting but costs rear tyre life over a race — brake slightly earlier, carry more mid-corner speed to preserve rears for final stint
• Biggest lap time gain: minimum speed through Becketts complex — every 1 km/h through there compounds across Hangar Straight and into Stowe
