Segment 8
Braking Point | Gear | Minimum speed |
88 metres before the apex | 2 | 80 km/h |
As you approach this combination corner, focus on your braking technique. Begin braking approximately 88 meters before the apex, gradually applying the brakes to slow the car down to the minimum speed of 80 km/h. Maintain a smooth, consistent brake pressure throughout the braking zone, and be ready to transition into the turn-in phase.
Once you reach the apex, gently release the brakes and begin applying the throttle. Pay attention to the throttle application, aiming for a progressive and controlled acceleration out of the corner. This will help you maintain stability and traction as you exit the turn.
Remember to keep the car in 2nd gear throughout this corner. Maintaining the proper gear will allow you to optimize your speed and acceleration. Stay focused, trust your braking point, and execute a clean, efficient line through this combination corner.
