Segment 9
Braking Point | Gear | Minimum speed |
66 metres before the apex | 2 | 63 km/h |
As you approach the ninth corner of the circuit, focus on your braking technique. Begin braking approximately 66 meters before the apex, ensuring you're in the ideal second gear for this combination corner. Aim to reach your minimum speed of 63 km/h at the apex, where you can then smoothly transition to the acceleration phase. Remember to trail the brakes slightly as you turn in, allowing the car to settle and providing better control through the corner. Once at the apex, gradually apply the throttle, being mindful of the car's stability as you accelerate out of the turn. Maintain a consistent, progressive throttle application to optimize your exit speed. By mastering the braking, turning, and throttle application in this corner, you'll be able to carry excellent momentum through the next section of the circuit.
