Segment 6
Braking Point | Gear | Minimum speed |
60 metres before the apex | 2 | 71 km/h |
As you approach this combination corner, focus on your braking technique. Begin braking approximately 60 meters before the apex, ensuring you've slowed the car down to the ideal minimum speed of 71 km/h in 2nd gear. Maintain a smooth, controlled braking pressure throughout the corner entry, gradually transitioning to throttle application as you reach the apex. Pay close attention to the throttle application gradient, applying the throttle firmly but progressively to maximize traction and exit speed. Remember, the key to navigating this corner is a well-executed braking phase followed by a smooth, controlled throttle application. Commit these techniques to muscle memory, and you'll be able to carry excellent speed through this challenging section of the circuit.
