When it comes to setting up P1 cars, understanding the science of aerodynamic downforce is essential.

Measurement of aerodynamics is key in LMP1 cars

Changing too much when setting up an LMP1 car can actually throw it off balance on the track.

The biggest mistake when it comes to a P1 car set up

The place where you'll lose the most time on any track is the slowest corner. Getting the mechanical grip just right on an P1 car can make a world of difference in the vehicle's racing performance.

Ultimately, the myriad of requirements for ensuring minimum load variations for your tires can be an LP1 car's make or break moment on the track.
