      That was some good driving. Just accelerating a bit late out of the apex every now and again, but the other bikes were definitely more powerful I think.

    That is insane how early (and hard) an experienced rider can get on the throttle in the corkscrew. He pinned that bad boy mid-turn while at a super sharp lean angle…and going downhill. That is so counter-intuitive to how my brain works. It just goes to show how much a good rider can extract from a bike vs an Average Joe like me.

    • @AriH211
      @AriH211 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Ironically, that's my slowest sector. The really good riders carry more entry speed into the left and get on the gas even earlier...

    • @aluisious
      @aluisious 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      The corkscrew is steep at the top and flattens out as you go down, so the wheels and suspension are heavily loaded. You will never get more traction than gradually coming out the bottom of a steep hill.
