Yeah it could use a bit of adjustment here and there, I’ll have to mess around a bit with it next session!

My main issue with the car is I prefer very pointy cars especially on initial turn in and this car is not that by default. But it’s manageable and fun at least.

My vote would be mid lap personally. I don’t use it often but sometimes it’s nice.

Was able jump on the sim and grab a lap really quick. I like this car much more; it's got a bit of character to it!

Lap: 2:25.076 --> 2:22.198 --> 2:20.359 --> 2:19.758 --> 2:18.979

Plenty of time left on the table, but it's a start haha

Edit - I’m starting to get a feel for AC physics thankfully

Edit 2 - Video of 2:18.979 lap, I massively screwed up the first corner which likely cost me a 2:17.xxx lap but this will work for now hah!

While PWA sites are nice I’ve never personally used one that felt as good or as consistent as a native application.

As much as my web dev heart would love to say they were haha.

Hah same tbh, I’m usually driving GT3-ish speed cars and the speed of F1 takes a bit to get adjusted to.

Also strangely satisfying once you get the driving style figured out.

Peak sim racing

I hadn’t driven this track in ages but good to know it felt a bit off to you as well haha.

We get spoiled by ACC and iRacing laser scans

What version of the track are you running? It doesn’t look to be an included track.

I’ll give it a go in a bit after I get some stuff installed.

Edit - Ended up installing Hungaroring 0.9.5 by Tiago Lima

BMW: 1:52.559 Lotus: 1:34.575 —> 1:33.160

If there’s a specific version, link me and I’ll give it a go as well!

If Red Bull were in a tight battle with the constructors Checo would easily cost them the title.

I feel like he’s actually been getting a pass because its not been a tight battle between Red Bull and someone else.

Only recently when he went from mediocre to absolutely abysmal did people start to really notice. Because how could you not.

“I should have a PR up today sometime”…repeats that phrase in the morning huddle 4 days in a row.

Not official versions supposedly.

While that’s probably true, Red Bull or rather Marko said not that long ago his sim work was not up to par.

Here’s to hoping he can perform decently at least!

Edit - funnily enough I just looked and now there’s a recent article where Horner says he’s extremely competitive on the sim lmao. Classic Red Bull.
