The inside and outside are equally difficult for overtaking; drivers who can hold the line around the outside of turn one, can get the inside line for turn two. The corners themselves make up a medium-speed chicane – drivers brake rather late for turn 1 and shift down to gear two, and turn two is almost full throttle as they try to gain as much exit speed as possible. TURN 3 (RENAULT) is a long, flat-out right-hander that has a g-force of about four, and it leads to a short straight before TURN 4 (REPSOL). Another right-hander, turn four is similar to Monza's Curva Parabolica – drivers brake and take an early apex, carrying great speed out of the exit. TURN 5 (SEAT) comes immediately after and is a slow left-hander taken in second gear which drops rapidly downhill towards the left kink of TURN 6 which is ignored by F1 cars. Turns 7 and 8 (WURTH) make up a medium-speed, uphill, left-right chicane. Drivers brake and shift down to gear three, and must not run too wide as turn eight has a large kerb on its apex which could potentially damage cars' suspensions. Turn 9 (CAMPSA) is a very fast, sixth-gear right-hander which is made incredibly difficult by being completely blind. It is initially quite steep uphill but the exit is then downhill, so it is quite easy to run wide onto the astroturf. The long back straight leads into TURN 10 (LA CAIXA), left-hand corner, then turns 11 and 12 (BANC SABADELL), a left kink before a long, slow, third-gear right. The next section has been redesigned by German engineer Hermann Tilke to lower speeds onto the 1,047 m pit straight – which in turn increases overtaking opportunities and safety. Turn 13 (EUROPCAR) is a tight, third-gear right-hander and drivers have to cross the track quickly to take the racing line through the slow left-right chicane of turns 14 and 15 (RACC Chicane), taken in second gear. Good traction is needed here as it determines speed down the pit straight. Turn 16 (NEW HOLLAND) is a flat-out right-hander which takes cars across the start/finish line.
