Segment 3 is a left-hand corner that requires the driver to be in 3rd gear at a minimum speed of 97 km/h. The braking point for this corner is 111 meters after the turn-in point, where the driver should begin braking to set up for the left-hand turn. This corner is a medium-speed left-hander that requires the driver to carry good momentum through the apex to maintain a smooth exit. The racing line shown in the image suggests a wide entry, tightening towards the apex, and then a gradual opening of the corner on the exit. Drivers will need to balance their braking and throttle application to maintain control and maximize their speed through this segment. Careful management of the car's weight transfer will be crucial, as the driver transitions from braking to turning and then back to acceleration. Maintaining a consistent line and managing the car's balance will be key to setting a competitive lap time through this corner.
