Segment 8
Braking Point | Gear | Minimum speed |
48 metres before the apex | 2 | 107 km/h |
As you approach this combination corner, focus on your braking technique. Begin braking approximately 48 meters before the apex, gradually applying the brakes to slow the car down to the minimum speed of 107 km/h. Maintain a smooth, controlled braking input, and be ready to transition into the turn-in phase. Once you reach the apex, smoothly apply the throttle to accelerate out of the corner, keeping the car in 2nd gear. Remember to maintain a consistent, progressive throttle application to optimize your exit speed. By mastering the braking and throttle control in this corner, you can carry more speed through the turn and set yourself up for a strong exit onto the next straight.
