As you approach the first corner, focus on your braking technique. Begin braking at the 155-meter mark before the apex, and aim to reach your minimum speed of 144 km/h at the apex of the corner. Maintain a steady, controlled brake pressure throughout the braking zone, and be ready to transition smoothly into the turn-in phase. Remember to keep the car in 3rd gear for this corner, as this will provide the optimal balance of speed and control. Stay patient with the throttle application, allowing the car to settle before gradually increasing power as you exit the corner. By mastering the braking and turn-in, you'll set yourself up for a strong exit and carry good momentum onto the next section of the track.
