| Hi Guys,
Turn points are there at the Schools to give the students somewhere to turn, and they are later than they (students) were turning at the start of the day. This is so they can see the benefits of a straighter line through the corner. They are not the racing line or the fastest line, they just work (given the statement above).
The purpose of the lesson is to show that without a Turn Point YOU WILL TURN TOO EARLY! This was really proven to me working with Thomas Luthi in the 125GP last weekend. He didn't have a Turn point for Turn 4 and then ended up turning in some 10 meters later than before!
Nothing more complex than that.
All the best
