Segment 5
Braking Point | Gear | Minimum speed |
191 metres before the apex | 2 | 105 km/h |
As you approach this combination corner, focus on your braking technique. Begin braking at the 191-meter mark before the apex, ensuring you're in the ideal 2nd gear. Aim to reach your minimum speed of 105 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 before getting back on the throttle. Maintain a consistent, progressive throttle application to optimize your exit speed. By mastering the braking and turn-in, you'll be able to carry more speed through this challenging section of the circuit.
