Segment 26
Braking Point | Gear | Minimum speed |
37 metres | 2 | 83 km/h |
Segment 26 is a left-hand corner that requires the driver to be in 2nd gear and maintain a minimum speed of 83 km/h. The braking point for this corner is 37 meters before the turn-in point, where the driver should begin slowing down and transitioning the car into the corner.
This corner appears to be a medium-speed left-hander that requires a smooth and controlled entry. The racing line shown in the image suggests a gradual turn-in and a steady, progressive application of throttle on corner exit to maximize the available grip and maintain momentum through the turn.
Drivers will need to be mindful of their braking point and ensure they have the car slowed down and settled before initiating the turn-in. Carrying too much speed into this corner could result in understeer or a loss of control, so a disciplined approach to braking and turn-in is crucial for a clean and efficient exit.
