I'm a great believer in taking tutition at trackdays (even if I THINK that I 'know' the circuit rolleyes).

But how long do you think it will be before the instructors themselves know the best/correct way to drive the new part of the Arena GP circuit and hence be able to impart that information to us mere mortals?

Silverstone's own instructors know it well. There are only a few 'new' corners, so must instructors will be good enough to pick it up after a few laps.

3-5 laps should be enough for most instructors.

Edited to add that if it started dry and then rained during the day I'd want to do another 3-5 to find wet lines + danger areas.
