This issue has been discussed before. See this previous post:

.

Based upon the linked thread above, It would appear that Hornby have not produced a specific piece of set track designed for this purpose. The final solution presented in this linked thread does not appear to be an elegant one, but many in the thread say it works. Personally I would use a short length of flexitrack in your situation.

The linked discussion has some people agreeing and some not but Try R643 which is 2nd radius and matches the inner track of the curved point - look at the geometry download and you will see the logic.
