What does Verstappen mean when he says Silverstone is now "constantly flat"? I ran the 2026 lap through my optimizer to find out - and it might back him up. From T5 to T15, you may not need to brake at all - if you time the MGU-K recovery to superclip and feed the battery. 🧵

To find the fastest lap around an F1 track, you wouldn't start with a 3D map of the circuit. Instead you reduce the whole thing to two numbers that change as you drive: how hard you're cornering, and how much room you have. 🧵

We know the MGU-K harvests energy under braking. But how much can an F1 car actually recharge in one corner? Austria T3 is an interesting case: ~319 → 73 km/h, steeply uphill - and even here, the MGU-K recovers less than 30% of the car’s removed energy. 🧵
