Segment 2
Braking Point | Gear | Minimum speed |
178 metres before the apex | 3 | 106 km/h |
As you approach this right-hand corner, focus on your braking technique. Begin braking at the 178-meter mark before the apex, ensuring you've slowed the car down to the ideal minimum speed of 106 km/h by the time you reach the apex. Maintain a steady, consistent brake pressure throughout the braking zone, and be ready to transition smoothly into the turn-in phase. Remember to keep the car in 3rd gear for optimal control and acceleration out of the corner. Stay patient with the throttle application, allowing the car to settle before gradually increasing power as you exit the corner. By executing this corner with precision, you'll set yourself up for a strong run onto the next straight.
