Segment 5
Braking Point | Gear | Minimum speed |
60 metres before the apex | 2 | 71 km/h |
For this combination corner, focus on executing a smooth braking phase and a gradual throttle application after the apex.
Begin braking approximately 60 meters before the turn-in point, gradually increasing brake pressure to slow the car. As you approach the apex, gently release the brakes and aim to reach your minimum speed of 71 km/h in second gear.
After the apex, smoothly reapply the throttle, monitoring the car's stability. Gradually increase throttle pressure to accelerate out of the corner, being mindful not to induce wheelspin. Maintain a steady, progressive throttle application to optimize traction and exit speed.
Remember, the key is to find the right balance between braking, turning, and throttle application throughout this combination corner. Focus on executing each phase with precision and control to carry maximum speed while maintaining stability.
