Tyre pressures at Anglesey National

The venue as mapped, to scale. Anglesey National is one of 2 layouts sharing this tarmac, and its exact course differs from the full-circuit outline shown. Track outline © OpenStreetMap contributors (ODbL).

How hard a circuit works each corner of the car shows up as tread temperature, and temperature is what sets pressure. GripCalc carries corner heating figures for Anglesey National as a starting point: how much hotter each tyre runs over the session's base temperature, from the layout's mix of corners and load. They pre-fill the calculator when you pick the circuit, and your own pyrometer readings refine them from the first session.

CORNERRUNS HOTTER BY, °C
Left front+2.5
Right front+2.0
Left rear+3.5
Right rear+3.0

ESTIMATED — class-based starting values over an 85°C session base, derived from this layout's type (direction, speed profile, load), and shared with circuits of similar character rather than measured here. Not gospel: enter your own pyrometer figures after a session and they take precedence.

FROM THE TYRE'S SEAT

What Anglesey National asks of a tyre

The National layout keeps Anglesey's clifftop sweeps with a shorter, simpler lap. The same cool coastal conditions apply, with even less time per lap spent under sustained load, so temperature building is the persistent theme, especially for road-biased tyres with higher working windows.

W1 Watch

Short lap plus sea air equals slow warm-up; consider a deliberate build-up plan

W2 Watch

The fast right at the cliff edge leans on the left side

W3 Watch

Check pressures between sessions; cool air means bigger overnight-style drops

WORKED EXAMPLE · COMPUTED BY THE ENGINE

A 992 GT3 on Cup 2 R at Anglesey National

Published hot target 30.5 / 32.0 psi at 92°C tread, on a 15°C morning, with the corner figures above: cold set 21.4 / 21.5 front, 22.5 / 22.6 rear. A different car, tyre or morning moves every number, which is what the calculator is for.
