Red is the corner working tower. Green represents the apexes.

I find the corner working tower after coming over the hill (the corner at the top right of the image). Finding the tower as I approach eight allows me to hit the rest of the section much more consistently. I still "find" the apexes, but having that reference point has really helped me a lot.



I still have a lot of trouble being able to see far enough ahead in some corners. I can't seem to see enough even with my new better helmet.
