Segment 8
Braking Point | Gear | Minimum speed |
134 metres before the apex | 3 | 89 km/h |
As you approach the eighth corner of the circuit, focus on your braking technique. Begin braking at the 134-meter mark before the apex, ensuring you have the car slowed down to the ideal minimum speed of 89 km/h in third gear. Maintain a smooth, progressive application of the brakes, gradually transitioning to turn-in. Once you reach the apex, smoothly apply the throttle, being mindful of any delay in throttle application to allow the car to stabilize. Remember, the key to this corner is managing your braking and throttle inputs to maximize your exit speed. Stay focused, and you'll be able to carry excellent momentum through this challenging section of the track.
