Segment 4
Braking Point | Gear | Minimum speed |
106 metres before the apex | 2 | 75 km/h |
As you approach this combination corner, focus on your braking technique. Begin braking approximately 106 meters before the apex, gradually applying the brakes to slow the car down to your target minimum speed of 75 km/h. Maintain a smooth, controlled braking pressure throughout the braking zone, and be ready to transition into the turn-in phase.
Once you reach the apex, smoothly apply the throttle to accelerate out of the corner. Pay attention to the gradient of your throttle application, aiming for a progressive, linear increase in power. This will help the car stabilize and maintain traction as you exit the corner.
Remember to keep the car in the appropriate gear throughout the corner, using second gear as the minimum. By executing a clean, well-timed braking zone and a smooth throttle application, you'll be able to carry good speed through this combination corner.
