LapBrain's coaching recommendations are designed to be actionable — things you can try at the track, not just data to look at.
How recommendations work
Each recommendation targets a specific corner and a specific technique. LapBrain identifies issues by comparing your laps against each other — and with enough data, against Pace percentilePace percentileA 0-100 score showing how a lap or turn compares to your own range of performance, where 100 is your best and 0 is your worst. statistics from other riders at the same track.
Recommendations are prioritized by time gain potential. The Focus recommendationFocus recommendationA coaching area ranked by potential time gain and your current skill level. LapBrain shows multiple focus recommendations so you can choose how many to work on. at the top of your debrief is always the one the data suggests would make the biggest difference.
What a recommendation tells you
Every recommendation includes three parts:
- Where — which corner (by number and name on the track map)
- What — which technique area ( Trail brakingTrail brakingMaintaining brake pressure while leaning into a corner, loading the front tire and tightening the turning arc. , line, throttle, etc.)
- How — a concrete suggestion ("Brake 5 meters later", "Maintain more speed through the ApexApexThe point in a corner where the bike is closest to the inside edge of the track and typically at the lowest speed. ")
Take one recommendation to the track at a time. Trying to fix everything at once leads to information overload. One focused change per session builds lasting improvement.
The briefing-session-debrief loop
The most effective way to use LapBrain follows a three-step loop:
- Brief — before your session, review your focus recommendations. Write down what you'll work on: which corner, which technique, what to change.
- Ride — on track, focus only on that one change. Don't try to optimize everything.
- Debrief — after your session, upload and check whether the issue improved, persisted, or changed.
Riders who follow this loop — brief, ride, debrief — typically see measurable improvement within 3 sessions at the same track.
Tracking progress
After your next session at the same track, LapBrain creates Coaching threadCoaching threadA specific, actionable area of improvement identified by LapBrain's analysis, such as 'trail braking in T5' or 'consistency through the esses.' s that track whether each recommendation improved, persisted, or got worse. See Comparing Sessions for how cross-session tracking works.
What to do next
- Before your next track day — open your last debrief and write down the focus recommendation: corner number, technique, and what to change.
- At the track — remind yourself of that one focus before each session.
- After — upload immediately while the session is fresh. The debrief is most valuable when you remember how the session felt.
