at the risk of getting the tin opener out and opening this can of worms back up
braking depends on driving styles , some people do the slow in fast out approach and use the traditional apex (the classic racing line)the late braking approach can work because the speed of the car before the apex is slower and the throttle should be in a neutral position if not slightly open which keeps the car stable before the throttle is increasingly applied as you exit the corner, this approach is generally the accepted fast way round the track , but some people just can't get on with it .
others use the late apex high corner speed style (squaring the corner off ) i am one of these, i spent too much time racing bikes to be able to change, this involves breaking a bit earlier but releasing the brakes earlier to maintain the corner speed all the way up to the late apex , and using the natural over steer of going in fast and turning hard to slow the car that bit more and because you get back on the throttle harder because you are straightened up sooner (less time turning) and the suspension spends a lot of compressed which saves it tying itself in knots , which in turn means the car is less likely to get unsettled for long enough to cause a problem , this method is very useful when racing for nipping up the inside of people on the exit of a corner ready for the drag race to the finish, and for scaring the crap out of doddering old farts on roundabouts
there are numerous variations on each of the above , and as already stated by everybody else its a personal preference thing and what feels best in that particular car , for example , i tend to get a lot more sideways in the corsa van than i do in the Galant , just because it feels happier doing it , the Galant is probably a lot more stable doing it than the van , but its down to feel (ooh eer missus )
ask any professional racing driver confidence is every thing , if your not confident in doing it then you won't do it well
right enough of my ramblings . back to the Bacardi
