Re: New version of DG patch is installed on the server

Regarding the lack of expected tyre wear on the fronts. I think we can probably put that down to my driving style. I tend to favor quite close ratios for the 3rd, 4th & 5th. So I brake a lot earlier than most people but use the engine to slow down, finally using the brakes for the final phase into a...

Re: New version of DG patch is installed on the server

I was using the previous version of the patch for the Dijon race. (813 - Dated 14/01/2025). My overall tyre wear over race distance felt slightly lower, although a few off track excursions late in the session pushed it up a bit. One thing I did notice was wear off the start seemed a lot less, so whe...

Re: New version of DG patch is installed on the server

I ran a full length simulation at Dijon as I already had data available. I have to say I like it a lot. I ran off track a few times towards the end and while tyre wear and reduced grip was still evident the additional wear was much less, the reduced grip (For about a lap) seemed to me more manageabl...

Re: Dijon - 27th of February - Round 2

Well, despite spending most of the race running alone due to messing up T1, hitting the tyres and having to stop for repairs on lap 5 I actually enjoyed this one a lot more than I expected. I was unable to find anything which resembled grip out there and gave up chasing lap times about a week before...

Re: Kyalami - 30th January 2025 - Round 1

Disappointing turnout. I had hoped some of the mystery drivers who appear on the pre qualifying server would make an appearance. For me a very hectic race, I had completely mixed my dates up and thought the race was next week. I still hadn't even made a final car choice when the youtube notification...

Re: 2025 Season

I'm considering my chassis choice for this season. I plan on attending all races if possible but unsure of my finishing chances due to my ongoing foot issues. So I'll probably grab one of the least represented cars to add more variety to the grid. I guess (Hope) Seb will return in his trusty Lotus, ...
