Depends on the shape of the corners before and after........

Sometimes if it's a straight into a hairpin then brake in a straight line. If it's one corner that gradually tightens into another then trail braking may be needed.

Braking is most efficient when the car is going dead straight. As soon as you add steering into the equation, or sliding, then your braking power is compromised.
