Segment 11
Braking Point | Gear | Minimum speed |
36 metres after turn-in | 3 | 117 km/h |
Segment 11 is a right-hand corner that requires the driver to shift down to 3rd gear and maintain a minimum speed of 117 km/h. The braking point for this corner is 36 meters after the turn-in point, which means the driver needs to start braking relatively late and carry good speed through the apex.
The racing line shown in the image suggests a smooth, sweeping entry into the corner, allowing the driver to maintain momentum and exit the turn with good speed. This corner likely rewards a committed, late-braking approach, where the driver can carry speed through the apex and maximize the exit.
Overall, this segment presents an opportunity for the driver to demonstrate their ability to manage the car's speed and balance through a medium-speed right-hander, while also maximizing the exit speed to set up the next section of the track.
