Philosophy: Verify, don't guess
Coaching should produce clearer decisions, not louder cues. The process is deliberate: identify what matters, execute one priority at a time, and confirm repeatability.
This approach works across skill levels because it focuses on controllable inputs: references, brake release, minimum speed, and exit quality.
