corkscrew
Think of a corkscrew toy that turns as you twist it. On a race track, a corkscrew is a part where the road spirals around, making it hard to drive straight through.
A corkscrew is a track feature that twists in a spiral shape, creating a challenging section for drivers as the car must navigate a tight, rotating turn.
