Segment 1
Braking Point | Gear | Minimum speed |
162 metres before the apex | 1 | 61 km/h |
As you approach this right-hand corner, focus on your braking technique. Begin braking at the 162-meter mark, gradually applying the brakes to slow the car down to the minimum speed of 61 km/h. Maintain a smooth, consistent brake pressure throughout the braking zone, and avoid any sudden or jerky inputs. Once you reach the apex, smoothly transition to full throttle application, allowing the car to accelerate out of the corner. Remember to keep the car in first gear throughout this segment to maximize traction and control. By executing a well-timed and controlled braking phase, you'll set yourself up for a smooth and efficient exit, allowing you to carry more speed onto the next straight.
