If you drive a stick, when you start to brake, do you take it out of gear first or do you start braking first?

Do you take it out of gear around corners? Or do you just slow down and keep it in gear?

I don't drive a manual daily (unfortunately), but when I get to drive one, I usually just slow down, go from gear to gear until I'm in 1st. Then when I'm stopped, I put it in Neutral.

I do not take it out of gear around corners....

Peace,

Rafster
