DAMPERS

AERO

• Front Splitter: 2 (of 6 clicks, low drag bias)
• Rear Wing: 6 (of 9 — Nordschleife GP combined layout demands stability through Fuchsröhre/Döttinger kinks and high-speed esses, worth the straight-line cost)
• Downforce Level: Medium-High
• Brake Ducts: Front 2 / Rear 2 (cool enough for single lap, no need to overcool and lose brake temp on a hot lap)

KEY SETUP NOTE

• This combined 25.378km layout includes the full Nordschleife plus GP section — tyre and brake temperature swings are extreme across the lap (long high-speed Nordschleife sections cool brakes/tyres, then heavy braking zones in the GP stadium section spike them). Setup must compromise between Nordschleife high-speed stability (favors more rear wing, slightly higher ride height over bumps/curbs) and GP-section mechanical grip (favors the stiffer rear ARB and coast lock for direction changes).

TRACK GUIDE

• Treat the Nordschleife bumps (Fuchsröhre compression, Pflanzgarten jumps, Flugplatz crest) with respect — too low a ride height will cause bottoming and unsettle the rear-engine car mid-corner; favor the 58/65mm setup over outright low ride height.
• Through the Nordschleife esses (Hocheichen, Ex-Mühle, Bergwerk), commit to smooth, progressive steering inputs — the GT3 R's rear weight bias punishes abrupt direction changes with snap oversteer.
• Brake stability into Aremberg and Adenauer Forst is critical — high coast lock (0.70) keeps the rear planted on trail-braking into these tightening-radius corners.
• On the GP-section hairpins (Mercedes Arena, Dunlop-Kehre equivalent), prioritize traction-focused late apex and progressive throttle — this is where the power lock diff setting (0.35) pays off on exit.
• The long Döttinger Höhe straight rewards the higher rear wing choice through reduced drag-induced lift and better stability at 290+ km/h approaching Antoniusbuche — don't be tempted to strip wing for outright top speed.
