Mount Panorama

Mount Panorama is a true mountain road: concrete-lined, wildly compressing and expanding in speed, with the lap snapping from the steep climb to a knife-edge run across the top before the downhill blast to the final sector. Time pivots around a few kingmaker bends—corner 4 sets the tone for the ascent, corner 15 is the anchor that feeds the long wind-up to 17, and corner 20 decides the drag to the line, while the 10–11 plunge and the 12–13 transition govern the pace across the ridge. The tight, closely spaced run from 8 through 15 delivers an unbroken, high-commitment rhythm, starkly contrasted by the big exhale into 17—two very different characters stitched into one brutal, brilliant lap.
