I see what you're trying to say but this particular moment (in video) where schumacher overtakes BMW's has more to do with racing line rather then with braking. I think.

If you watch the video again you'll see how the two cars in front miss the apex and run wide because of the way they entered the corner. Schumi on the other hand takes it wide then hits the apex which allowes him to carry more speed into the corner and all the way till the next one.
The trouble with the rat-race is that even if you win, you're still a rat.
