Segment 1
Braking Point | Gear | Minimum speed |
132 metres before the apex | 2 | 76 km/h |
As you approach this left-hand corner, focus on your braking technique. Begin braking at the 132-meter mark before the apex, ensuring you've slowed the car down to the ideal minimum speed of 76 km/h by the time you reach the apex. Maintain a steady, controlled application of the brake pedal, and be ready to transition smoothly into the turn-in phase. Remember to keep the car in 2nd gear throughout the corner, allowing you to maximize your acceleration out of the exit. Stay patient with the throttle application, gradually increasing pressure as you reach the apex to maintain stability. By following this approach, you'll be able to carry good speed through the corner and set yourself up well for the next section of the track.
