Cornering
Cornering refers to the technique of navigating a turn or bend in a road or track while maintaining control of a vehicle. It involves adjusting speed, steering, and body position to ensure stability and minimize the risk of skidding or losing traction. Proper cornering is essential for safe driving and is a key skill in motorsports.
In automotive racing, cornering can significantly impact lap times and overall performance. Drivers often use techniques such as apexing, where they aim for the innermost point of the turn, and throttle control to optimize their speed through corners. Mastering cornering can enhance both safety and efficiency on the road.
