Segment 4
Braking Point | Gear | Minimum speed |
83 metres before the apex | 4 | 158 km/h |
As you approach this combination corner, focus on your braking technique. Begin braking approximately 83 meters before the apex, gradually applying the brakes to slow the car down to the ideal minimum speed of 158 km/h. Maintain a steady, controlled brake pressure throughout the braking zone, and aim to be in 4th gear as you turn in.
Once you reach the apex, smoothly transition to full throttle application, allowing the car to accelerate out of the corner. Pay attention to the throttle gradient, applying the power progressively to maintain stability. Remember, this is a combination corner, so be prepared to adjust your line and inputs as the corner tightens. Stay focused and trust your braking point - this will set you up for a strong exit and carry good speed onto the next straight.
