The signs on both sides at monza final turn are due to the pit entrance on the right hand side. Similarly with the pit exits when a braking zone or hard corner follows, laguna seca pit exit for example.

If I'm not mistaken it also means the road turns at more than a 90 bend or essentially a U-turn... so, yes hard braking and low gearing.

I wonder if (franked by Stowe) it's likely to be an overtaking (or lapping) zone, with two cars beside each other, one blocking the marker board on the outside for the car on the inside

All sounds pretty valid. With a lot of Monza I've experienced that that corner has multiple lines depending on car and class. You can hold that hole outside on the corner and keep a lot of speed. You can also hold it in tight and sling shot out. Definitely a True test in a race

A big tip that I’ve learned is that in a large portion or corners without brake boards, there will very often be other “marks” such as permanent tire marks on track, wiggles in the track, or props off to the side of the track. Using a marker for every corner will make you faster than anything else.

Sometimes the props can even help set a more precise braking point on corners with brake boards. Pouhon at Spa comes to mind, for GT3s I'll use a hole in the fence as my braking marker and not the brake boards.

Some additional icing on the marker boards cake is the number of boards present. If the corner only has a 100 meter marker, you probably don't need to brake much meaning it's likely not a sharp corner. If it has a 300 meter marker it means significant braking is required and you can expect a sharper turn. If in a lower performance car, brake around the first board, and in high performance use around half the highest board as your no later than point

What a great video! Another couple of useful tips that helped me to learn a lot of tracks relatively quickly: 1. Watch and follow the dark (rubbered) part of the track - oftentimes it gets much darker before a corner indicating start of the braking zone (when learning the track, brake initially a few meters before the darkest part of the track) 2. On a lot of tracks, end of a curb indicates a good turn-in point (this isn’t as consistent as the other tips tho)

All of this got infinitely easier once I switched to VR. Braking zones feel natural, and i can confidently approach a corner I have never seen before. So many tricks you need to rely on for flat screens are suddenly not as important because you have a better sense of speed and depth. Loved the tip about the apex curbing though, will be paying much more attention to that going forward. :)

Danny let me say, While I have been Sim racing for about three years now, I am still learning, but having fun learning and getting better and faster. But these tips are monumental for me. There are several tracks in ACC that I haven't driven because of uncertainty of turns, curbs or sufficient speed to maintain or decrease to apex correctly (COTA, Donington, Indianapolis and a few others). To the point that my SA suffers because I haven't driven them. But now, with this info, of which some I was aware of, but some info I was not. I think I can drive those tracks with a little more enthusiasm. Thank you. Going to check you channel for set-up help now 😉🤗

Sim racing is hard to overcome the first time you learn but to a understandable still point you must always start with low horse powered car like a sedan roadsters civics and that way you will grow a custom to the nature of sim racing and keep in track like Tokyo R246 from GT3 the middle sector is all about generating that momentum get the absolute maximum out of the track limits getting real close to the walls as possible, as a trainee of sim racing is some great fun I've ever had ya'll know feel me?

My preferred way of learning a new track is to watch quality onboards first and learn all the corners and approximate braking points and racing lines from the onboard before ever driving on the circuit. I find it a lot quicker that way to get up to speed. Trying to figure out the braking points, the racing line, where you can use the curb where you cant, the gears and everything else is extremely demanding and takes a long time for me. Learning from an onboard i can only focus on memorizing the track, I am not distracted by actually having to drive while learning it. Then when i get on the track, i can start already in correct gears, just do slightly more conservative braking points, but have correct lines everywhere and just focus on getting the car on the limit through each of the corners and push the braking points where they should be. Approach from this video and guessing where the next turn is going to go based on the braking boards would be very dangerous and very slow.

i've learned to force myself to drive as i would irl i know most tracks, but with certain cars, or in rally games, i focus really hard on not hitting anything. i pretend like it's my homologated special that i don't want destroyed. then slowly push myself until i've figured out the cars limit. what point traction breaks, how the weight shifts, brake power etc it's way more enjoyable for me if i drive the car with skill. after a while you learn how to manipulate the car instinctually. rally games are the best for this anyway, this logic works on tracks too. pretend like someone handed you the keys to a gr3 but if you wreck it you buy it. run laps with that mindset and itll change your game

Im just a joystick amateur, but I have a possibly useful and surely fun to try tip. Buy yourself a good rally sim and put in a decent amount of hours from cockpit view without co-pilot's voice. Codemasters games have procedurally created tracks so you never repeat a curve, except when restarting a run. Of course, you will crash a lot at first. But if you compromise a bit of speed then you will give your eyes and brain enough time to seek for patterns and it eventually starts feeling easier. Then when you come back to circuit racing, learning a new track in just 5 laps will be easy

Hey mate, I am a Canadian racing driver and I spend more time at the race track than I do at home in the summer. All of this is to say, I've got a lot of experience in race track events. My local race track keeps adding more and more curbs as needed. You're putting cause and effect backwards. Race tracks didn't always have the kinds of curbs we have now. The curbs aren't there to guide the drivers. Actually, the drivers would have done their racing line with or without the curbs. But, the curbs are meant to help cars to stay on track - it provides tactile feedback of being on the edge of the track without damaging the grass. Race cars damage landscape and especially the edge of race tracks... So curbs aren't there to guide the drivers on which side of the track to be on, but instead that they bump the car onto the track to help prevent landscape damage. One local race track doesn't have enough curbs and I have personally worn away the grass in one spot (the apex) but just trimming close to it, lap after lap after lap.

It's defo a good tip to turn off the racing line after only a few laps on a new track before you become too reliant on it. for several reasons: if you rely on it, you end up tunnelvisioning that line and not reacting to what other cars around you are doing. good way to be losing safety rating. most racing lines are also very conservative in their estimate of where you should be braking, and early on you will probably be slamming those brakes on hard, and end up releasing and having that awkward coast the last bit into the corner. obviously, this is slow, and also not something you want to do in a pack of cars as it forces other drivers to react. bad for your speed and safety rating. lastly, if you're relying on that line, it'll take you much longer to understand why sometimes you're faster and sometimes slower through the same corner. the line doesn't care about weight transfer, aerowash, or whether traction control is on. sometimes, it can and will lie to you about when you should be back on the throttle, and the sooner you learn that feel, that faster you'll improve

Usually I know tracks pretty quickly, especially through gaming or watching races online. When I know a track, than basically i never forget. Where I have sometimes issues with are 'modern' tracks with strange flows. Like the Qatar Losail track which i basically only did in MotoGP games. So crappy with references, while I actually have no problem with f.e. Bahrain or Abu Dhabi. Even though I havent done the Nordschleife, Sepang, Curitiba and Macau tracks for maybe 5-10 years, they I know kinda exactly from my mind still. While I did Qatar much more recent, I know it a lot less. But yeah, i do a lot of different racing on a lot of different tracks which sometimes learn me knew tricks. From MXGP, MESX, MotoGP, DiRT Rally 2.0, Nascar HEAT, etc. One tip I would like to suggest is knowing the gearing for tracks. That you know you need to shift up and down at moments and you can create a nice flow for things. Other tip is just to turn of that racing line. It doesnt help at all using that.

@ 4:20 that corner is relatively long and is a good place to dive bomb. Your unwary opponent gets to go the long way around while you sneak up the inside.

wow what an amazingly helpful video and so perfectly produced.. The real meat and potatoes without any confusion . I Have not even raced my first sim yet but have so many hours of you tube researching before I make the large purchase.. I was so wondering how the hell you can learn all the circuits .. Your tips are going to make my introduction and journey so much easier.

Thank you! 100%, you are the kinda person I aim to reach with my sim racing guides. It's an amazing hobby/passion and I'm sure that you'll find it fascinating and rewarding, once you find your feet and find your place. My aim is to make sure newer racers don't give up!

I have a question: To attack a curve, do I need to have reference points to do it or do I do it by consciousness "knowing where the Apex is"? What do you recommend? I'm just starting out in this.😅

Shhhh! No!!! This is secret stuff!!! I'm not that fast. This is how I get podiums in games because others miss this stuff and play in kitty litter or mow the grass. *subscribed*

When I was young, I remember playing Grid 2 like 10 years ago and I used to think that these break markers were speed in Km/h, slowing down as the corner appeared XD

I still use the 3D racing line on the F1 games, but I have my own braking points, most of the time they are never where the dynamic line suggests you brake, I work that bit out in practice, and through a lot of corners I'm pushing the colors off green. The main reason for this is I'm older and I just cant see smaller markers like meter boards before its too late.

On some tracks, the brake markers have difficult-to-read numbers (orange on black) and easy to miss them at high speed.

what I have noticed, if I use a minimap for a track, it takes me much longer to learn a track, than without a map. having no map, forces you to learn faster and you'll not constantly look down to the map, so you'll be more focused on racing ;-)

on the nurburg ring gp circuit final chicane you can floor it all the way until the 50 meter mark and slam the brake until you hit roughly 135-140kph and make it. 140 is pushing it (At least this works for me on a bmw m4 with acc's default setups and 5tc and abs
