Not exact matches
For the following ten laps, I was knocking on fate's door by running very wide through the second -

at the

corners.
The main disadvantage of left foot braking is the fact that no
gear change can be performed during the braking phase hence the driver has to select the
gear to be used
at the
corner exit prior to initiating the maneuver.
I was impressed when, braking heavily before a
corner, the transmission
geared down quickly, then held the engine
at a solid 4,500 rpm as I made the turn
exit.
