As you approach this combination corner, focus on your braking technique. Begin braking approximately 121 meters before the apex, gradually applying the brakes to slow the car down to the ideal minimum speed of 129 km/h. Maintain a consistent fourth gear throughout the corner, allowing you to smoothly transition from braking into the turn-in phase. Pay close attention to your throttle application, aiming to apply the throttle progressively as you reach the apex to maximize your exit speed.

By executing this corner with discipline, you'll be able to carry valuable momentum onto the next straight.
