Segment 1
Braking Point | Gear | Minimum speed |
128 metres before the apex | 4 | 152 km/h |
As you approach the first corner, focus on your braking point. Begin braking at around 128 meters before the apex to ensure you reach the ideal minimum speed of 152 km/h. Maintain a steady brake pressure throughout the braking zone, and gradually transition to turning the car as you reach the apex. Once at the apex, smoothly apply the throttle to accelerate out of the corner, being mindful of any delay in throttle application to allow the car to stabilize. Remember to keep the car in the appropriate gear, in this case, 4th gear, throughout the corner. By following these techniques, you can navigate this corner efficiently and set yourself up well for the next section of the track.
