Suzuka rewards a connected lap through the esses, followed by control through longer corners such as Spoon. Choose a front end that follows the sequence without leaving the rear behind when you reverse the steering.

Compare the complete esses sequence rather than only the first change of direction.
Check both parts of Spoon and the exit onto the back straight.
Separate hairpin traction from high-speed confidence through 130R when deciding what needs adjustment.

Qualifying adjustments

Use low-fuel runs to check whether a sharper front improves the esses while leaving Spoon and 130R predictable.
