As you approach the first corner, focus on your braking technique. Begin braking approximately 110 meters before the apex, gradually applying the brakes to slow the car down to the minimum speed of 77 km/h. Maintain a consistent gear throughout the corner, using the lowest gear to ensure you have the necessary torque to power out of the turn. Remember to trail the brakes slightly as you turn in, allowing the car to rotate and set up for a smooth exit. Gradually apply the throttle as you reach the apex, being mindful of any delay in throttle application to maintain control. By mastering the fundamentals of this corner, you'll set yourself up for a strong run through the rest of the circuit.
