Segment 9
Braking Point | Gear | Minimum speed |
152 metres before the apex | 2 | 109 km/h |
As you approach this right-hand corner, focus on your braking technique. Begin braking at the 152-meter mark, gradually applying the brakes to slow the car down to the minimum speed of 109 km/h. Maintain a smooth, controlled braking input, 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, keeping the car in 2nd gear. Remember to maintain a consistent, progressive throttle application to optimize your exit speed. By mastering the braking and throttle control in this corner, you can carry more speed through the turn and set yourself up for a strong exit onto the next straightaway.
