The very best drivers can go up to but not over the maximum lateral capability during braking and corner entry. As they smoothly come off the brakes, the lateral limit increases due to both the friction circle, and more balanced loads front/rear.

How robust do driver controls really need to be? Never underestimate the strength of a scared driver.

Different processes for calculating and measuring brake temperatures for pad selection.

Definitions of limited slip differential types and performance, focusing on yaw moments due to combined cornering and acceleration or braking.

A highly optimized brake system properly managed by the driver allows longer wide-open throttle times, shorter brake zones, and higher average cornering speeds. This is how we reduce lap times.
