Segment 3
Braking Point | Gear | Minimum speed |
114 metres before the apex | 3 | 113 km/h |
As you approach this left-hand corner, focus on your braking technique. Begin braking approximately 114 meters before the apex, gradually applying the brakes to slow the car down to the ideal minimum speed of 113 km/h. Maintain a smooth, controlled braking effort, and be ready to transition into the turn-in phase. Remember to keep the car in 3rd gear throughout the corner. As you reach the apex, gently release the brakes and begin applying the throttle to accelerate out of the corner. Aim to maintain a consistent, progressive throttle application to maximize your exit speed. By executing this corner with precision, you'll be able to carry more speed through the turn and set yourself up for a strong run onto the next straight.
