Segment 6
Braking Point | Gear | Minimum speed |
94 metres before the apex | 2 | 97 km/h |
As you approach this combination corner, focus on your braking technique. Begin braking approximately 94 meters before the apex, gradually applying the brakes to slow the car down to the minimum speed of 97 km/h. Maintain a smooth, controlled braking pressure throughout the braking zone, and avoid any sudden or excessive braking inputs.
Once you reach the apex, gently transition to the throttle, being mindful of any delay in your throttle application. Aim to apply the throttle progressively to maintain stability and traction as you exit the corner. Remember to keep the car in the optimal gear, second gear in this case, to optimize your acceleration out of the corner.
By executing a well-timed and controlled braking maneuver, followed by a smooth throttle application, you can maximize your speed and momentum through this combination corner. Stay focused on your technique, and you'll be able to carry excellent speed through this challenging section of the circuit.
