Abstract
A method for increasing the maneuverability and driving stability of an automotive vehicle during cornering, the rotational behavior or the wheel slip of the individual vehicle wheels is monitored, and the distribution of the brake force to the curve-outward wheels compared to the brake force conducted to the curve-inward wheels is varied in dependence on the wheel rotational behavior and on the slip of the wheels. When cornering is detected, a total deceleration of the vehicle that corresponds to the driver's request is determined, and a vehicle deceleration that corresponds to the driver's request is achieved by increasing the brake force at the curve-outward wheels and decreasing or maintaining the brake force at the curve-inward wheels.
