Assetto Corsa EVO shares an official COTA lap guide

We’ve got an official Assetto Corsa EVO announcement focused on driver prep rather than a game patch: Kunos has released a Circuit of the Americas lap guide featuring Nils Naujoks. The post frames COTA as part of Early Access Release 0.2 and points to the broader 0.2 content list in the official announcement.

What changed

Tracks

• An official lap guide for Circuit of the Americas is now available for Assetto Corsa EVO.
• The guide covers the full 5.5 km circuit, including its 20 turns and major elevation changes.
• It highlights braking points for steep entries such as Turns 1 and 12.
• It also explains racing lines through the high-speed esses, plus technique for Turn 15 and the Turns 16–18 carousel.
• The guide includes advice for maximizing exit speed and top speed on the 1 km back straight.
• The post states that COTA is part of Release 0.2 in Early Access.

Cars

• The lap guide is demonstrated in the Porsche 911 Turbo 3.6 (964) on road tires.
• It specifically references shift timing, braking references, and kerb usage aimed at keeping the car settled.

Features

• This is instructional content: a detailed driving guide intended to help players improve lap times and technique at COTA.
• The announcement also points readers to the separate Release 0.2 feature and content overview for everything else included in that update.

For league ops, we’d brief drivers with this guide before running COTA and make sure event notes clarify the car/tire context used in the walkthrough.
