Really like the idea of showing the replays just after the action rather than all at the end. Better for my blood pressure. Another cracking race!

I was going to say the same thing. I'm sure it's a lot more work for editing, but the just-in-time replay is great for us viewers.

Hey Dave, quick tip: if you look at your right side HUD, you will see that in the beginning of the Race (and it only happens on Race session), it goes haywire and a bunch of settings get changed. This is due to an option in Crewchief. You can disable it there, and this wacky behavior is solved! Was driving me nuts a few years ago!

Looked like a very good race! You did run out of your push to pass battery after 15 laps, so no wonder the car was a bit slow after that though. Just because you get 15 seconds of use every lap doesn't mean you can use it for 15 seconds every lap and still have the battery last the entire race.

A very entertaining race, a braking failure left you sixth, but there is something that I see and that I want to confirm, the speed of response of that base was decisive when it came to rectifying the trajectory, if you had not noticed everything that towards that car, you would never have been able to save it, I think it is a magnificent example of what a good synergy between software and hardware is, a good FFB Doesn't it make you faster? Maybe NO, does it make you more consistent? YES... Thanks Dave...

@michallachowicz4137 10 ай бұрын

9:21 if you had your triple screen you'd feel different about your choice. Although he did fight back, mid apex you were too tight on him and forced him wide (your front left was pushing his rear right and turning him outside) With the tripples you wouldn't turn in so much and avoid him.

@davecamm 10 ай бұрын

I disagree. I was opening up my steering and he should have kept it tighter.

@anthonylwalker 10 ай бұрын

@@davecamm I think maybe the commenter is more saying that he doesn't think he was intentionally pushing you into the wall, but that the point of contact into the rear right was forcing the car to push wide - though I agree the other car should've kept tighter to avoid the incident in the first instance.

Good race. Looks like you pinched that guy in the apex. He shouldn't be throwing it up the inside like that after you caught up nearly 2 seconds in a lap and a half. You were clearly much faster. Very poor race craft from that driver. But he didn't have a car width on the apex. Contact was really weird as well.

It doesn't seem to me the KwikFit #16 car did anything intentional there, but instead I think it was just unfortunate general simracing collision physics. You two got too close in the apex and then tangled so your car kept turning left into his RR which made his car rotate towards right and into you. He could've been turning left all he wanted.
