Segment 8
Braking Point | Gear | Minimum speed |
99 metres before the apex | 4 | 167 km/h |
As you approach this right-hand corner, focus on your braking technique. Begin braking at the 99-meter mark before the apex, and aim to be in 4th gear as you turn in. Maintain a minimum speed of 167 km/h through the apex, carefully managing your throttle application to ensure a smooth exit. Remember to trail the brakes slightly as you turn in, allowing the car to rotate and set up for a strong acceleration out of the corner. Stay patient with the throttle, allowing the car to stabilize before applying full power. By executing this corner with precision, you'll carry valuable momentum onto the next straight.
