Segment 6
Braking Point | Gear | Minimum speed |
27 metres before the apex | 2 | 103 km/h |
For this corner, focus on maintaining a smooth and controlled approach. As you approach the braking zone, begin to gradually apply the brakes around 27 meters before the apex. This will allow you to scrub off speed and set up the car for the turn-in.
Once you reach the apex, aim to be in 2nd gear at a minimum speed of 103 km/h. This will provide you with the necessary traction to power out of the corner. Be mindful of any throttle delay after the apex - a smooth, progressive application of the throttle will help the car stabilize and maximize your exit speed.
Remember, the key to this combination corner is maintaining control and momentum. Stay focused on your braking points, gear selection, and throttle application to carry as much speed as possible through the turn. With practice, you'll be able to consistently nail this section of the circuit.
