Segment 5
Braking Point | Gear | Minimum speed |
63 metres before the apex | 3 | 164 km/h |
As you approach this left-hand corner, focus on your braking technique. Begin braking at the 63-meter mark before the apex, ensuring you're in the ideal 3rd gear. Gradually trail off the brakes as you turn in, allowing the car to settle and reach its minimum speed of 164 km/h at the apex. Once you've reached the apex, smoothly apply the throttle to power out of the corner, gradually increasing your speed. Remember to be patient with the throttle application, allowing the car to stabilize before fully committing to the acceleration phase. By executing this corner with precision, you'll be able to carry excellent speed through the exit and onto the next straight.
