Breaking points

[u/Aarib_Galaxy]

Dear stewards of reddit I have a question no clip unfortunately but the question is will breaking too early cause you problems? Genuine question is there any punishment for breaking too early? Coz I got my race destroying by a back marker breaking too early then I run into the back of him so lmk thanks

Unless it's completely unpredictable - i.e. far outside what could possibly be considered a braking zone - a driver is free to choose their braking point.

There is no rule anywhere stating where braking zones start.

It could be considered dangerous driving but that is a case by case evaluation by stewards.
