Learn how to master Mid-field Raceway and Circuito de la Sierra in Gran Turismo 6, including track details and driving tips.
Mid-field Raceway
Track length: 3562 m
Turns: 13
Car used: GT-R
Regulated top speed: 320 km/h
A very fast track with just a few braking points, Mid-field is perfect for beginners. Powerful and fast cars will have an edge in this track. It’s available with the adjustable time and weather options.
- 1Start the lap cruising the long start/finish straight, which is more than 1/4 of the total length.
- 2On the horizon, the first two turns are two nearly 90 degrees right handers. Heading at full speed (+310 km/h), brake hard a little before going under the overpass, shifting down to 3rd at around 130 km/h to deal with the first right hander.
- 3React very quickly and accelerate as soon as you can, because the following right hander is flat out (try to abuse both the inner and outer curbs as much as you can).
- 4A little straight precedes a twisty right-left-right combination taken at high speeds.
- 5After the second signal to the left, brake a little and shift down to 4th to take the first right at about 190 km/h.
- 6The next two turns are flat out, but in this occasion you don’t need to abuse that much the curbs.
- 7Coming through a short straight at +270 km/h in 6th, brake hard down to 120 km/h in 3rd to take the first right hander, crossing over the track via a bridge.
- 8Go over the outer curb so you can take the upcoming right hander faster, then go through the tunnel and brake a little at the exit to better tackle the next turn.
- 9It’s a long and wide left hander, taken at nearly 140 km/h in 3rd as you keep the speed through the turn.
- 10Anticipate the exit of the turn and accelerate quickly for the next straight, which heads downhill.
- 11As you keep accelerating through the downhill, tackle the upcoming left hander flat out, then brake slightly down to 190 km/h in 4th to tackle the tighter right hander coming up.
- 12Ahead lies the tightest turn in the track, a sharp and tight left hairpin. Brake hard and shift down to 2nd to take the turn at 80 km/h, accelerating as soon as you see the entrance to the tunnel.
- 13As you keep accelerating through the tunnel, take the last left-right chicane flat out to head to the start/finish straight. This last combination is made uphill, so be careful when exiting the right hander because there’s a possible jump if you go too fast. This point is also the one where the track crosses itself.
Mid-field Raceway (R)
Top speed is reduced to 310 km/h. The changes in uphill and downhill also change the difficult zones of this track. It’s also a bit slower, due to some sections not being flat out anymore and needing more braking.
- 1Right after crossing the start/finish line, start braking through the uphill down to 180 km/h to tackle the blind left-right chicane in downhill.
- 2The chicane leads you to the tunnel, in which you brake down to 80 km/h in 2nd to tackle the tight and banked right hairpin.
- 3After it, the uphill starts, with the upcoming left-right chicane taken flat out.
- 4Nearing the end of the uphill, brake down to 135 km/h in 3rd to tackle the long right hairpin, trying to keep the speed through the whole turn.
- 5Then head into the second tunnel, where you brake down to 120 km/h in 3rd to tackle the first of two consecutive left handers, the second one taken almost flat out at 130 km/h still in 3rd.
- 6After a straight stretch, face a flat out left bend, as you brake down slightly to 200 km/h in 5th to tackle a right-left chicane, abusing any curb in your way to lose minimum speed.
- 7After a short straight, brake down to 155 km/h in 4th to tackle the first of two consecutive 90 degrees left handers, using the short stretch connecting both to brake down to 135 km/h in 3rd to tackle the second turn and head into the long main straight.
Circuito de la Sierra
Track length: 27000 m
Turns: 45
Car used: RS200
Regulated top speed: 280 km/h
A fictional track inspired in the city of Ronda, in Spain, just a mountain away from Ascari Race Resort. It was made available alongside a new game mode inspired in the Ridge Racer series. It’s entirely run on streets, so it has the walls very close to the track in most sections. It’s incredibly long and with countless and sometimes abrupt elevation changes as well as jumps, so it’s a very difficult track to master. It’s available with the adjustable time and weather options.
- 1Cruising through the main straight, start going uphill through the first right hander, taken flat out at 230 km/h in 5th.
- 2Brake down to 160 km/h in 4th to tackle the upcoming blind left hander, and brake again after a short stretch down to 100 km/h in 2nd for a tighter left hander taking you downhill.
- 3The right hander ahead is flat out, as you bend to the right and brake a little down to 130 km/h in 3rd to tackle a long left hander in uphill.
- 4The straight after it is a bit in downhill, with a big drop signaling the braking zone to tackle the upcoming left-right combination at 125 km/h in 3rd.
- 5Continue through a short stretch and a flat out right hander in uphill, with a big jump at the peak and a smaller one just before the upcoming left turn. Lift the throttle just before the first jump and don’t accelerate until you’re in the middle of the turn, then brake down to 130 km/h in 3rd for the next right hander.
- 6The road then goes uphill for another blind left hander, taken at 125 km/h in 3rd, and a short straight leads you to a drop.
- 7As you head downhill through a flat out right hander, you must brake a bit down to 175 km/h in 4th to pass a blind left turn in steep uphill.
- 8The crest ahead makes the car jump as you go downhill again.
- 9After passing the 100 mark on the right, brake down to 80 km/h in 2nd to tackle a tight right hairpin.
- Mid-field Raceway is perfect for beginners due to its few braking points and fast nature.
- Powerful and fast cars will have an edge on Mid-field Raceway.
- Circuito de la Sierra is a very difficult track to master due to its length, elevation changes, and close walls.
- Use the adjustable time and weather options for both Mid-field Raceway and Circuito de la Sierra.
