Segment 7
Braking Point | Gear | Minimum speed |
85 metres before the apex | 2 | 73 km/h |
As you approach this right-hand corner, focus on your braking technique. Begin braking approximately 85 meters before the apex, gradually applying the brakes to slow the car down to the minimum speed of 73 km/h. Maintain a smooth, consistent brake pressure throughout the braking zone, and avoid any sudden or excessive braking.
Once you reach the apex, smoothly transition from braking to throttle application. Be patient with the throttle, allowing the car to settle and regain grip before gradually increasing the power. This will help you maintain control and maximize your exit speed.
Remember to keep the car in second gear throughout this corner. By maintaining the optimal gear, you can optimize your acceleration and carry more speed through the exit. Stay focused on your line and maintain a consistent, smooth driving style to maximize your performance.
