Segment 8
Braking Point | Gear | Minimum speed |
161 metres before the apex | 3 | 124 km/h |
As you approach this combination corner, focus on your braking technique. Begin braking at the 161-meter mark before the apex, ensuring you're in the ideal 3rd gear. Aim to reach your minimum speed of 124 km/h at the apex, then smoothly apply the throttle to power out of the corner. Remember to avoid any delay in throttle application after the apex - this will help the car stabilize and maximize your exit speed. Maintain a consistent, progressive throttle input throughout the acceleration phase. By mastering the braking and throttle application in this corner, you'll be able to carry more speed and optimize your lap time.
