00:00Let's take a look at his lap. 180 miles an hour down into turn one.
00:03He downshifts once, very little braking.
00:05Then he has to get it slowed down to about 100 miles an hour for the apex of two.
00:09A short straight for the S, the snake, at the back of the pit.
00:12No braking required. It's all throttle application and just sweeping through a nice line.
00:18To the bottom of the hill for the Dunlop Curve.
00:21It just keeps turning left. Apex early, take it to the outside.
00:25Apex very, very late to be on the left again for Degna. Watch this.
00:30120, just keeps it within the confines of the track.
00:33He's tight again in Degna too, but he's away.
00:36Ringing the car out, flat right into the hairpin.
00:39Braking a straight line, all the grips on the inside, and there he goes.
00:42He's hooked up with that. Straighten the car as soon as you can for best traction.
00:45Cresting over a couple of small hills, a long right-hander.
00:49Feeding you in at 180 miles an hour to the famous Spoon Corner.
00:53You brake extremely late, bring it down to 115.
00:55Apex early, move towards the outside.
00:57A second apex, and you have to get good acceleration speed here.
01:01There's a long back straight ahead of you.
01:03Climbing the hill gently up to 200 miles an hour towards the famous 130R Corner,
01:09which is newly resurfaced this year.
01:12Not a hint of lift of the throttle, just scrubbing of the speed as the car pulls 5G through there.
01:17He's already into the final triangle chicane.
01:20He can take all the curve he wants, tickling the throttle until he can nail it
01:23as the car picks up grip and launches him into the pit straight.
