In: 1
The other answers are correct that it’s s physics equation but there was a video the other day which a guy went straightish and rode the high wall to ruin his car on the last lap but take like 8 spots and qualified for a playoff spot because of it.
There’s less control going high and they only go high on the straight to go low. It’s like turning too quick, you can’t go fast.
