Thank you bradleyland. Great observation! I normally like to begin braking later and lighter for T6 so that I can trail-brake longer and deeper into that downhill carousel to rotate the car more, which would help me get on the throttle sooner…if that makes any sense. Braking harder and sooner for the McLaren shifted everything and left me with some added understeer but that’s something I gotta work on… Doing a mild dive bomb on the inside of the McLaren crossed my mind but no point in that
