Segment 5
Braking Point | Gear | Minimum speed |
151 metres before the apex | 1 | 61 km/h |
As you approach this right-hand corner, focus on your braking technique. Begin braking at the 151-meter mark, ensuring a smooth and progressive application of the brakes. This will allow you to carry good speed into the turn while maintaining control of the car.
Once you reach the apex, gradually transition from braking to throttle application. Be patient with the throttle, allowing the car to settle before gradually increasing power. This will help you maximize your exit speed and carry momentum onto the next straight.
Remember to keep the car in first gear throughout this corner. The minimum speed of 61 km/h at the apex indicates you'll need to manage the gearing carefully to maintain control and optimize your line. Stay focused on your inputs and trust the car to carry you through this challenging section of the circuit.
