Are you ready for another Pro Challenge in F1® World? Take on Charles Leclerc’s lap time around Austin’s Circuit of the Americas to land the Ferrari driver’s Austin Edition helmet in-game.
Hey, I'm Charles Leclerc. Race against my Austin lap time in F1 World. Let's go.
This is a really exciting track, especially the first corner. It's so uphill you can brake very, very late into the corner.
As soon as you get on top of the hill, the car is becoming a bit lighter, you have a bit less grip.
That is probably my favourite part of the track, the high speed.
Here, precision is absolutely everything. Try and cut the kerbs as much as possible without getting the track limits.
Don't push too much this corner as it's very important to close this corner.
Brake as late as possible. Inside front locking is very common here.
And exit is super important because then you've got a very, very long straight.
Obviously, DRS activation. Try and be as early as possible on the DRS.
Very technical part now.
Brake at 100 metres. Try and take the apex.
Here, don't push too much the entry. It's important to stay tight on exit in order to prepare this double left-hand corner.
Very important to try and brake as straight as possible, otherwise you will lock the front wheel very easily.
Then here, all flat out.
Flat, flat, flat. Last two corners.
Here, you don't see the apex. You see it very, very late, so you need to anticipate the turning and turning quite early.
In the last corner, especially if you are in qualifying, you can push quite a lot the entry.
The exit is not that important because it's not a long way to go to the finish line.
And that's it for a lap in Austin.
Come and race with me at Circuit of the Americas in EA Sports F123.
