Segment 7
Braking Point | Gear | Minimum speed |
56 metres | 2 | 117 km/h |
Segment 7 is a left-hand corner that requires the driver to slow down to 117 km/h in 2nd gear. The braking point for this corner is 56 meters before the turn-in point, where the driver will need to apply the brakes to scrub off speed and set up the car for the left-hand turn.
This corner appears to be a medium-speed, sweeping left-hander that will require the driver to carry good momentum through the apex and exit. The racing line shown in the image suggests a smooth, flowing approach to the corner, with the driver aiming to maximize the available track width and maintain a consistent, controlled line.
Executing this corner well will be crucial for setting up the next section of the track, as the driver will need to carry as much speed as possible through the exit to maintain a strong run onto the following straight. Careful throttle application and smooth steering inputs will be key to navigating this segment efficiently.
