Segment 9
Braking Point | Gear | Minimum speed |
80 metres before the apex | 3 | 96 km/h |
For this right-hand corner, focus on a smooth and controlled braking approach. Begin braking approximately 80 meters before the apex, gradually transitioning into the turn-in. Maintain a steady throttle application through the apex, allowing the car to gently accelerate out of the corner in 3rd gear. Avoid any sudden inputs, and aim to maximize the exit speed while maintaining stability. Remember to trail the brakes slightly to help rotate the car and set up the optimal line through the corner. Stay patient with the throttle, allowing the car to settle before applying full power on the exit. With a disciplined approach, you can carry good speed through this challenging segment.
