Segment 9
Braking Point | Gear | Minimum speed |
140 metres before the apex | 2 | 57 km/h |
As you approach this combination corner, focus on your braking technique. Begin braking at the 140-meter mark before the apex, ensuring you've slowed the car down to the ideal minimum speed of 57 km/h in second gear. Maintain a smooth, progressive application of the brakes, gradually transitioning to turn-in. Once at the apex, smoothly reapply the throttle, being mindful of any slight throttle lifts needed to stabilize the car. By executing this corner with precision, you'll be able to carry excellent momentum through the exit and onto the next straight. Remember, consistency is key - practice this section until you can replicate these ideal driving lines and speeds.
