Grand Valley - South Reverse demands precise rhythm and smooth inputs across its varied elevation changes. Mastering the balance between high-speed flow and critical braking zones is essential for optimal performance.

Setup Focus

  • Suspension tuning for stability over elevation changes and bumps.
  • Good braking balance and stability to handle the heavy braking zones.
  • Optimized differential settings for strong exit traction from tight corners like the Hairpin.
  • Aerodynamics balanced for high-speed stability through the Esses without sacrificing cornering grip.

Corner Analysis

4 corners
1

Sweeping Left (after Start/Finish)

Fast, slightly off-camber left-hander

Gear 4th-5th

Sweeping Left (after Start/Finish)

VIDEO COMING SOON

Technique

Carry significant speed into this corner. Brake lightly before turn-in, aiming for a late apex to maximize exit speed onto the short straight. Be mindful of the slight elevation change mid-corner, which can unsettle the car.

Apex Strategy

Late apex, hugging the inside curb on exit.

2

Hairpin (before Tunnel Entrance)

Tight left hairpin

Gear 2nd

Hairpin (before Tunnel Entrance)

VIDEO COMING SOON

Technique

This is a critical braking zone. Brake hard and late, aiming to rotate the car sharply. A very late apex is crucial here to get the best drive out onto the long straight through the tunnel. Avoid over-rotation on entry.

Apex Strategy

Very late apex, almost at the exit curb, to straighten the exit.

3

The Esses (after Tunnel Exit)

High-speed left-right-left sequence

Gear 4th-5th

The Esses (after Tunnel Exit)

VIDEO COMING SOON

Technique

Commitment is key here. Maintain high speed, using minimal braking between turns. Focus on smooth steering inputs and throttle modulation to link the corners seamlessly. Be prepared for the car to feel light over the crests.

Apex Strategy

Clip the apexes of each turn, maintaining a flowing line through the sequence.

4

Final Corner (before Start/Finish)

Decreasing radius right-hander

Gear 3rd

Final Corner (before Start/Finish)

VIDEO COMING SOON

Technique

This corner tightens significantly. Brake early and progressively, aiming for a slightly earlier entry than it appears to allow for the tightening radius. Manage throttle carefully on exit to avoid understeer or oversteer as you power onto the main straight.

Apex Strategy

Double apex or a very late, sustained apex through the tightening section.

Critical Risks

Common mistakes at this circuit

  • Off-camber sections can lead to snap oversteer, especially in the first sweeping left.
  • Blind crests and elevation changes can unsettle the car, requiring precise steering and throttle control.
  • The tight Hairpin before the tunnel is a common spot for locking up brakes or running wide.
  • Wall proximity in several sections, particularly through the Esses, punishes even minor mistakes.
