Followed by the hairpin at the bottom, and there's also a pretty steep climb back up. Executing all that safely while not wasting fuel... I'm sure it will be "interesting".

You can do the Boot with no brakes but you probably won't be able to neutral coast without going over the speed limit. I tried to come into it at 55, lift off and let it coast with default regen which held the car at 55 through the sweeper, then on the gas early before losing too much speed up the hill on the backside. The hardest part is doing that with slow traffic in front of you; it seemed most people wanted to brake going into the Boot but I don't think that's the most efficient way through. Good luck!
