Lamborghini Huracan GT3 EVO2 Kyalami HYMO Hot Lap Analysis

Let’s take a look at this hot lap of Indianapolis in the Lamborghini Huracan GT3 EVO2 driven by HYMO.


The Track

Kyalami is known for its technical layout, featuring a combination of fast straights and challenging corners that demand a well-tuned car setup. A precise setup is crucial for drivers to find the right balance between high-speed stability and cornering agility, allowing them to navigate the track's intricate sections effectively. Luckily HYMO has got you covered with the same setup that is being used in the reference video. HERE

With a rich history in motorsport, Kyalami has been the host of iconic races and has garnered a reputation as a historic and revered circuit. Its legacy has solidified its place as a significant venue in the world of motorsports.

Analysis

Using the Track Titan software to compare the HYMO lap to a community lap we can see that the HYMO driver gains almost 0.23s mostly in the braking zone of t7. A quick left-hander which if you don’t get the optimal line, a lot of time can be lost.

Looking at the braking graph we can see that the HYMO driver (orange) brakes slightly later than the community driver. The HYMO driver can do this because he uses the trail braking technique. The HYMO driver doesn’t immediately go from 100% brake power to 0% but slowly decreases the pressure until the apex. This means the HYMO driver can take more speed into the corner.

Hot Laps Top Tips

Did you know that setting up your force feedback properly can significantly improve your ability to control the car? When your wheel reaches peak force during a corner, you may no longer sense any changes in how your car is behaving. If this occurs while cornering, you might not notice your car starting to slide, potentially leading to a spin.

Instead, consider entering a practice session and 'swerve' along the track to see if your force feedback reaches the clipping point. Continuously decrease your force feedback gain until you no longer reach this clipping point.
