Segment 8
Braking Point | Gear | Minimum speed |
78 metres before the apex | 2 | 153 km/h |
As you approach the eighth corner of the circuit, focus on your braking technique. Begin braking approximately 78 meters before the apex, gradually applying the brakes to slow the car down to the ideal minimum speed of 153 km/h. Maintain a smooth, controlled braking input, and be ready to transition into the turn-in phase. Once you reach the apex, smoothly apply the throttle to accelerate out of the corner, being mindful of any delay in throttle application to allow the car to stabilize. Remember to keep the car in the optimal second gear throughout this corner. Maintain your discipline and focus, and you'll be able to carry excellent speed through this important section of the circuit.
