The hardest on the brake system is the first corner, to drop from 317 km/h (198.8 mph) to 95 km/h (59 mph), drivers have to brake for 2.7 seconds with a load of 151 kg (313 lbs.) on the brake pedal during which they are subjected to 4.8 G deceleration. In that length of time, the single-seaters travel 120 meters (387 feet). And what about the video games? Even in the Formula 1 video game, late braking at the first corner after the start could even cause a chain reaction accident, with the risk of an early exit from the race given the narrow track. Once the cars are spread out, drivers can attempt to overtake by clever braking at the 100 meter sign. After dropping into second gear, drivers shift up to third while moving the car to the right - and even over the curb - to discourage attacks by other teams.
