Boost needs to be managed and if the system is conceptually the same as for the 918, the driver needs to hit a button to get boost, then its pre-staged and can be used together with putting down the loud pedal. So probably hitting the button mid corner so that boost is available post apex.

..both : the 919 V4 has primary turbos (2X) that boost (traditional turbo usage) the intake charge, and then, secondary turbos that turns generator that reloads batteries, so : always plenty of electric energy for acceleration !
Yes, Alexander is a genius, after the Red Bull F1, what he did at Porsche with the 919, was most probably the best of all cars to date !

I hope people understand what this really means as this of course is just a marketing campaign for what is next:
The next gt3 ( and race cars?) will have a 2l turbo....
If it was good enough to set world records around the world it should be good enough for the street car. They can even retain the racing derived moniker.
Ducking for cover now....
