Circuit Characteristics
(6)Setup
Power Circuit
Long straights favor cars with strong power unit performance and low drag setups.
straightsOver600m >= 2 OR longestStraightM >= 1000Setup
High Downforce
Technical layout with many slow/medium corners rewards aerodynamic grip over top speed.
(cornersSlow + cornersMedium) >= 12 AND straightsOver600m <= 12026
Heavy Regen Potential
Multiple heavy braking zones (>4G) maximize energy recovery under 2026 MGU-K rules.
brakingZones4G >= 32026
Deployment Critical
Many acceleration zones from slow corners make battery deployment strategy crucial.
cornersSlow >= 5Strategy
Moderate Tyre Degradation
Balanced tyre wear - strategy flexibility between one and two stops.

Overtaking Friendly
Long straights into heavy braking zones create natural overtaking opportunities.
