It's a difficult thing to give advice on... basically you drive as fast as you can without crashing!

You need to feel for the grip on the circuit, because there is some there amazingly. I'd suggest watching for the first 5 mins on the practise session to see what bits of track the better teams are using. It's alsoo good to listen, you can hear when they come off the power and get back on it.

All circuits vary but as a rule don't use the normal racing line, you tend to find grip off line on the outside of the corner. I think 3 sisters falls into the 'drive round the outside when wet' rule... but it has been 6 years since I last drove it.
