Segment 1
Braking Point | Gear | Minimum speed |
116 metres before the apex | 3 | 93 km/h |
As you approach this combination corner, focus on your braking technique. Begin braking approximately 116 meters before the apex, gradually applying the brakes to slow the car down to the minimum speed of 93 km/h. Maintain a smooth, consistent brake pressure throughout the braking zone, and avoid any sudden or excessive braking.
As you turn in, be mindful of your steering input and aim to carry as much speed as possible through the corner. Gradually increase your throttle application after the apex, being careful not to apply too much power too soon, which could unsettle the car. Maintain a steady throttle through the exit to maximize your acceleration out of the corner.
Remember to keep the car in 3rd gear throughout this segment, as this will provide the optimal balance of power and control. Stay focused on your line and maintain a smooth, consistent driving style to optimize your performance through this challenging combination corner.
