Lamborghini Huracan GT3 EVO2 Valencia HYMO Hot Lap Analysis

‍

Let’s take a look at this hot lap of Valencia in the Lamborghini Huracan GT3 EVO2 driven by HYMO.

The Track

This challenging, technical circuit demands precise car setup, especially navigating corners like Turn 1, Turn 8 and Turn 12. Thankfully, HYMO offers the ideal setup tailored for this demanding track, as showcased in our latest hot lap video available HERE.

‍

Established in 1999, the Circuit Ricardo Tormo stands as a prominent fixture in motorsports. Hosting events like the MotoGP and Formula E, this track offers a mix of tight corners, fast straights, and elevation changes. Its layout provides a thrilling experience for drivers and spectators alike.

Analysis

Let’s use the Track Titan software to compare a community driver to the HYMO driver through Turn 8. This is a long left hander with a small left kink just before the braking zone. Trail braking is essential here, and keeping the car close to the inside of the corner will be beneficial.

‍

Looking at the braking data, we can see that the community driver (in dark blue) brakes later than the HYMO driver, and in this case, this is too late. They can’t slow the car down in time which means they are unable to trail brake. They also go too deep into the corner, making their racing line into more of a ‘V’ shape. The HYMO driver on the other hand brakes at the perfect time, and utilises trail braking on the entry to the corner. This keeps the car rotating, allowing them to stick to the inside of the corner making their racing line as short as possible.

Sim Racing Top Tips

Setting up sim racing equipment involves careful consideration of the physical positioning of the gear. The steering wheel, pedals, and seat should be arranged in a way that mimics the layout of a real race car. This not only enhances the realism of the simulation but also allows for optimal control and comfort during races. The height and angle of the steering wheel, the distance to the pedals, and the recline of the seat can all be adjusted to suit the driver’s preferences and body dimensions.

‍

A correctly set up sim racing rig can significantly improve your lap times. The more comfortable and natural the setup feels, the more precise your steering, throttle, and brake inputs will be. This precision leads to smoother driving, better tire management, and ultimately faster lap times.
