F1 Nation · F1 Explains: High-Speed v Low-Speed tracks - with Jolyon Palmer · 3 Sep 2026 podcast

So the down force comes off the car as the speed reduces.

You're not glued to the road anymore.

So you need to make sure you're you're getting good grip from the chassis, from the the the suspension settings, making sure you've got your your tires having good contact with the the tarmac or the curbs.

You need good compliance.

You need probably a softer car so it's gonna roll around a little bit more and find grip in different places.

Whereas in the high speed again, it's just downfall.

So you stiffen up the car.

You want to make sure your your aero load is as good as possible.

So you m have the car really rigid, so it's

Clean and crisp.

We did that.

We did that

All the time.

It's at downforce levels.

So spar is the best example of this because you've got really long straights, sector one and three.

Th through a rouge, you're flat out, you blast up the hill.

So you want low down force at that point because you want the car to cut through the air without having a huge amount of drag, without slowing down with air resistance, pure and simple.

Same when you come back at the end of the lap, you're flat out into the bus stop.

You want to be as quick as you can in the straight.

So you take off the down force, but then you haven't got the down force for the middle sector.
