Segment 1
Braking Point | Gear | Minimum speed |
144 metres before the apex | 2 | 92 km/h |
As you approach this combination corner, focus on your braking technique. Begin braking at the 144-meter mark before the apex, ensuring you've slowed the car down to the ideal minimum speed of 92 km/h by the time you reach the apex. Maintain a smooth, controlled application of the brake pedal, gradually transitioning to turn-in. Once at the apex, smoothly reapply the throttle, allowing the car to accelerate out of the corner. Remember to keep the car in the optimal second gear throughout this segment. By mastering the braking phase and executing a clean, controlled turn-in, you'll be able to carry excellent momentum through the corner and power out of it effectively.
