Segment 8
Braking Point | Gear | Minimum speed |
167 metres before the apex | 1 | 100 km/h |
As you approach this combination corner, focus on your braking technique. Begin braking at the 167-meter mark before the apex, ensuring you're in the ideal 1st gear for navigating this corner. Aim to reach your minimum speed of 100 km/h at the apex, where you can then smoothly transition to the acceleration phase. Remember to trail the brakes slightly as you turn in, allowing the car to settle and grip the road. Once at the apex, gradually apply the throttle, being mindful of any delay in your throttle application to maintain control. Approach this corner with a calm, measured driving style, and you'll be able to carry good speed through the exit.
