Segment 6
Braking Point | Gear | Minimum speed |
82 metres before the apex | 2 | 89 km/h |
As you approach this combination corner, focus on your braking technique. Begin braking at the 82-meter mark before the apex, ensuring you've slowed the car down to the ideal minimum speed of 89 km/h by the time you reach the apex. Maintain a smooth, consistent application of the brake pedal, and be ready to transition into the turn-in phase. Remember to keep the car in second gear throughout this corner, allowing you to maximize your acceleration out of the exit. Stay patient with the throttle application, gradually increasing pressure as you reach the apex to maintain control and stability. Visualize the ideal line through this corner, and commit to executing it with precision. With the right braking, gearing, and throttle control, you can carry excellent speed through this challenging combination.
