There's a better line into 11/12/13 (the kink on the back straight), but it's hard to describe. Basically you clip the curbing on the right side but aim straight up the hill and hug the grass/curbing on the left side. You're taking 6/7 MUCH better by the later sessions, huge improvement over the first few laps.
I like taking a different line into the southern most turn, but it's riskier if you miss your braking point. You can see what I mean here, no kink to show though.

If you're finding you're overcooking it into turns, you need to move your braking points back a bit. If it's only sometimes, chances are you don't have a consistent braking point. Do you know what your braking points are for each corner, or just kinda guessing at them?
Braking points are the hardest reference points to find/learn, since they're very dependent on approach speed. Turn in and apex generally don't move much, that's why we teach them first, then add braking after students have turn in and apex nailed.
