Segment 1
Braking Point | Gear | Minimum speed |
128 metres before the apex | 4 | 126 km/h |
As you approach the first corner, focus on your braking point. Begin braking approximately 128 meters before the apex of the corner, ensuring you're in the ideal 4th gear. Aim to reach your minimum speed of 126 km/h at the apex, then smoothly apply the throttle to accelerate out of the corner. Remember to trail the brakes slightly as you turn in, allowing the car to rotate and set up for a clean exit. Stay patient with the throttle application, allowing the car to stabilize before applying full power. Maintain a consistent, progressive steering input throughout the corner. By following this approach, you'll be able to carry good speed through the first turn and set yourself up well for the rest of the lap.
