Key corners

Variante del Rettifilo (Turns 1-2)

The first chicane after the start: a heavy braking from over 340 km/h to about 90 km/h for a tight right-left. The single most chaotic first lap corner of the year — sausage kerbs and grass edges punish anyone trying to cut.

Curva Grande (Turn 3)

A long, fast right-hander taken flat or with a small lift in current cars. The corner where slipstream battles play out — the leading car ends the corner with the trailing car right on its gearbox heading into the second chicane.

Lesmo 1 + 2 (Turns 6-7)

Two right-handers in quick succession at around 220 and 250 km/h. The only meaningful aero-dependent corners on the lap; cars set up for low downforce run wide and wash speed.

Parabolica (Turn 11)

The last corner — a long, decreasing-radius right that loads up over its second half before opening onto the main straight. Get it wrong and the entire next lap, including DRS into Turn 1, is compromised.
