It's not about running out of brakes (fade) but you can get on the brakes later and harder with the FPV brembos. I've gone from Celsior to F40/330mm to F50/355mm and with each change have felt the difference and have moved my braking points back.



You can also try higher friction pads which have the greatest effect on braking HP.

There are some very high friction race pads which also work from much lower temperatures suitable for sprints or where limited warm up is required, they have somewhat recently become available roughly 0.7u with 100 to 800 deg operating temps.
