Today’s tutorial explains the braking phase, and more importantly how we change our technique to optimise this section and reduce lap time.

I’ve already spoken about braking technique and trail braking in other tutorials, but in this article, we’re concentrating on how to push yourself to improve the braking phase and carry optimum speed all the way into the apex.

This will result in a small improvement at the corner in question – improve at every corner on a lap and you’ll see a massive reduction in lap time.
