Segment 20
Braking Point | Gear | Minimum speed |
20 metres | 3 | 128 km/h |
Segment 20 is a right-hand corner that requires the driver to slow down to 128 km/h in 3rd gear. The braking point for this corner is 20 meters before the turn-in point, where the driver will need to apply the brakes to scrub off speed and set up the car for the right-hand turn.
The racing line shown in the image indicates that the driver should aim to carry as much speed as possible through the corner, using the full width of the track on the exit to maximize the exit speed. This will be crucial for setting up the next section of the circuit.
Navigating this corner effectively will require the driver to balance their braking, turn-in, and throttle application to maintain control of the car and maximize their speed through the turn. Smooth inputs and a well-executed line will be key to setting a competitive lap time on this segment of the track.
