Segment 8
Braking Point | Gear | Minimum speed |
114 metres before the apex | 1 | 71 km/h |
As you approach this left-hand corner, focus on your braking technique. Begin braking at the 114-meter mark before the apex, ensuring you're in the ideal 1st gear. Aim to reach your minimum speed of 71 km/h at the apex, then smoothly apply the throttle to power out of the corner. Remember to trail the brakes slightly as you turn in, allowing the car to rotate and set up for a strong exit. Stay patient with the throttle application, allowing the car to stabilize before fully committing to the acceleration phase. By mastering this corner, you'll carry valuable momentum onto the next straight. Keep practicing this technique, and you'll see consistent improvements in your lap times.
