Starting a lap at the circuit that holds the UK record for crowd attendance, you quickly forget its history as your attention is focused on the infamous paddock–hill bend.
With its swooping downhill drop and deep, car stranding gravel trap mistakes here are frequently terminal and the long walk across the kitty–litter is guaranteed to get a cheer from the expectant crowds on the outside of the corner.
Assuming survival through the initial part of the corner, running out to the very limits of the tarmac ensures maximum drive uphill into the surprisingly tight Druids hairpin which rewards late braking but punishes the overly brave!
Dropping back downhill and through the left handed Graham Hill Bend, you'll be glad to enjoy a brief moment on the flat along the Cooper Straight where keeping the right foot hard down over the kerbs at Surtees and up into the McLaren/Clearways section saves the extra few tenths that will be all that separates the majority of the cars in any Fiat race here, getting the maximum exit speeds is critical for pace along the
start/finish straight over the finish line where the fun starts all over again.
A classic Fiat Racing track because maintaining maximum corner speed is the key to unlocking a strong result in a tight series.
Perfect for the newer Puntos that don't expect anything to ever be easy!
