Segment 5
Braking Point | Gear | Minimum speed |
36 metres before the apex | 1 | 39 km/h |
As you approach this combination corner, focus on your braking technique. Begin braking approximately 36 meters before the apex, ensuring you're in the lowest gear, 1st, to maintain control through the corner. As you turn in, gradually release the brakes and smoothly apply the throttle, allowing the car to accelerate out of the corner. Pay close attention to the minimum speed of 39 km/h at the apex, and be ready to adjust your line and throttle application to maintain momentum. Remember, a consistent, controlled approach is key to navigating this challenging section of the circuit effectively.
