The Austin lap

What does it take to win here?

Track guide: Pirelli, 2025. Watch points are F1Fix interpretation.

01

Speed without losing stability

Pirelli describes a lap mixing fast direction changes with technical corners and a need for straight-line speed. The setup has to work across all three demands.

What to watch
Watch the balance between fast-corner commitment and speed on the straights.

02

Manage the heat in the tyres

Austin’s fast corners put sideways loads through the tyres, making heat management important. A quick lap alone does not show how well a car can sustain a stint.

What to watch
Watch repeatable long-run pace as the tyres age, allowing for fuel and traffic.
