Segment 4
Braking Point | Gear | Minimum speed |
85 metres before the apex | 2 | 70 km/h |
For this left-hand corner, focus on a smooth and controlled braking phase leading into the turn. Begin braking approximately 85 meters before the apex, gradually applying the brakes to scrub off speed and transition into the corner. Aim to carry as much speed as possible through the apex, but avoid over-slowing the car. As you reach the apex, gently release the brakes and begin a progressive throttle application to power out of the corner. Maintain a steady, moderate throttle through the exit to ensure a clean, controlled exit. Remember to keep the car in the appropriate gear throughout the corner, using the minimum gear necessary to maintain control. Stay focused on a smooth, balanced driving technique to maximize your speed and momentum through this section.
