Segment 1
Braking Point | Gear | Minimum speed |
306 metres before the apex | 2 | 118 km/h |
As you approach this left-hand corner, focus on your braking technique. Begin braking at the 306-meter mark, gradually applying the brakes to slow the car down to the ideal minimum speed of 118 km/h. Maintain a smooth, controlled braking effort, and be ready to transition into the turn-in phase. Once you reach the apex, gently apply the throttle to accelerate out of the corner, keeping the car stable in 2nd gear. Remember to be patient with the throttle application, allowing the car to settle before applying full power. By mastering this corner, you'll be able to carry more speed through the turn and set yourself up well for the next section of the track.
