    It's deceiving, the infield is very different too actually. See for yourself here

    I didn't know the layout had changed. It seemed to be the same from the pictures in books or magazines but it's definitely not the case! Thanks for this information, Alex.

    Just because you have sh*t loads of power and torque doesen't mean you have to use it all ;) Key to succes with this car is to be extremely sensible with gas pedal. Make sure the tyres and brakes are fully warmed up before even thinking to go on full gas. Never use full gas if your car is not perfectly straight. For first laps (or even after that) you don't need more than 5krpm and lik Alex said, you dont't need 1st gear at all. Brakes are ok once warmed up, but you need to brake early as you usually end up to extreme speeds on straights. Once you handle the gas pedal properly, you'll find that chassis/rest of the car actually handles pretty well.

    Very fun car to drive once you learn to master it, nicely challenging, only downside is that it makes other cars feel a bit boring :D
