Tracing a lap with Giancarlo Fisichella:
“On the finish of the start-finish straight, I attain a pace of 310 km/h and brake very sharply for the primary left-hand nook, which might be negotiated on the 2nd run at round 105 km/h.
Instantly after that, there’s a proper flip. I shift into third gear and undergo it at 155 km/h, typically utilizing the accelerator pedal to maintain the steadiness of the automobile.
The lengthy left-hander is taken by switching from third to fifth gear and I attain 310 km/h once more on the straight earlier than I’ve to brake for flip 4, which I take at 135 km/h in third rail.
This left-hander is adopted by one other one, which I soak up 4th gear, at 240 km/h. In a while the straight I attain a pace of round 285 km/h and the observe turns to the fitting, the steadiness of the automobile should be excellent right here. The subsequent right-hand bend may be very steep and might be negotiated in 1st gear at 70 km/h, the following left-hand bend might be negotiated at 100 km/h. The next straight may be very brief and I solely handle to speed up to 210 km/h when I’ve to brake earlier than the slowest nook. I take it in 1st gear at round 70 km/h.
From right here there’s a lengthy left-hander in 4th gear at 205 km/h and I’ve to watch out once more concerning the steadiness of the automobile at this level.
Earlier than the final nook I’m at 255 km/h and I’m going into it in 2nd gear, figuring out that it is vitally necessary. Then there’s a part of about 650 metres, which I deal with with the accelerator pressed to the underside.
A very good nook is sweet for enough pace on the start-finish straight, and gives a great alternative for overtaking simply earlier than Flip 1. ”
