As you approach the first corner, focus on your braking technique. Begin braking at the 133-meter mark before the apex, ensuring you're in the ideal second gear for this corner. Aim to reach your minimum speed of 71 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 and grip the road. Once at the apex, gradually increase your throttle application, being mindful of any delay to allow the car to stabilize. Maintain discipline throughout this corner, and you'll set yourself up well for the rest of the lap.
