Segment 8
Braking Point | Gear | Minimum speed |
130 metres before the apex | 4 | 163 km/h |
As you approach this right-hand corner, focus on your braking technique. Begin braking approximately 130 meters before the apex, gradually applying the brakes to slow the car down to the ideal minimum speed of 163 km/h in 4th gear. Maintain a smooth, controlled braking phase, and be ready to transition into the turn-in. Once you reach the apex, smoothly apply the throttle to accelerate out of the corner, being mindful of any delay in throttle application to allow the car to stabilize. Remember to keep your steering inputs clean and progressive throughout the corner. Maintain discipline in your braking and throttle application to maximize your speed and momentum through this segment.
