Comments: Brands Hatch is a longer mostly narrow track with many corners. Building a car with minimum top speed and maximum wear may be your best bet. Since the majority of the track is narrow, passing is tricky. Surtees Bend and Clark Cure are critical corners. Use these corners to build momentum to pass others on the long straights that follow or pull away from those who are chasing you. Don’t get stuck in the first spaces of these corners doing the speed limit and unable to accelerate down the straight. Don’t let the section between Westfield Bend and Dingle Dell corner lure you into a trap. Avoid unintentionally entering Dingle Dell corner at an overly excessive speed.
