Curitiba is a new addition to the WTCC calendar so it presents a new challenge to all drivers and teams. It's a fast track, using parts of the Curitiba oval course and it has the longest straight of any track on the WTCC calendar.

The layout and types of corners on the track is similar to Oschersleben, but Curitiba have more dramatic elevation changes. Especially the section between Entrada do Miolo and Pinheirhinho where well balanced cars and confident drivers can gain a serious advantage through the heavily banked turns.

Curva de Vitoria has quite a bit of positive camber and your exit speed will carry though all the way down the straight. But go even 10 centimeters wide and you will wash out and end in the wall, there is only ONE line through this fast corner, so line up behind the car in front and slingshot past him down the straight

Off topic again:
Separate gas / brake does work now =D
I did some training on Curitiba and Brands Hatch, still lots of work to do, I'm 3 seconds off Rydell in Brands. Driving is very different, and the foot-hand coordination doesn't work properly.
As I'm still going to school, money is always a problem... So I won't be able to buy a new wheel in the next time.

gained 0,9 seconds just because of this corner :)
 
yes, unfortunately you can gain too much on this corner using the bug in the game, therefore we made the post well before the Tournament race, to make everyone aware of it.

I think we should make this clear with pics also for Magny Cours, there are also 3 corners like this in the game, the 2 high speed chicanes and the last chicane to the finish. Using these bugs i can do 1.45.1, without them high 46....
 
oh, i forgot to mention:
i love my Honda, i love my Honda, i love my Honda, i love my Honda, i love my Honda, i love my Honda, i love my Honda, i love my Honda, i love my Honda, i love my Honda, i love my Honda, i love my Honda, i love my Honda, i love my Honda, i love my Honda, i love my Honda, i love my Honda, i love my Honda, i love my Honda, i love my Honda....
