Disclosed is a method performed by a control arrangement for controlling a speed of a first vehicle comprising a plurality of brake systems configured to provide brake power for braking the vehicle. The method comprises, when a downhill road section is to be travelled, and when a second vehicle is travelling in front of the first vehicle predicting a plurality of minimum distances corresponding to different brake powers to be applied by at least one of the plurality of brake systems when approaching and/or travelling the downhill road section, each minimum distance constituting a resulting minimum distance to the second vehicle. The method further comprises applying, by at least one of the plurality of brake systems, a brake power corresponding to the brake power to be applied to obtain the minimum distance of the plurality of minimum distances such that at least a predetermined minimum distance to the second vehicle is maintained when approaching and/or travelling the downhill road section.
