Yeah. The most frustrating thing is that it differs from corner to corner. Hit the apex post on some corners and you get a penalty and others you don’t. I did wonder if some people were completely cutting the whole corner and saving a bunch of time hence such a strong penalty

It’s been like that for about 6 months. Just keep away from the Kerbs is the best thing.

60k gets you the max rewards but in theory the points score is limitless and defined by your quali and race times

To answer your question about set-up; I think there’s a few posts on it here already but don’t go higher than 90 on brakes. Max out “lightweight”, Then comes “power”, then “handling”. Aero is only needed to get really high top speeds. Think of it more as aero efficiency than downforce. I wondered if anyone has any thoughts on the best way to play the game I.e. tap turn or tilt. From the videos I’ve seen on YouTube it looks like the quick guys are tappers. The car drives completely different. They seem to have the accelerator on full the whole time and use max steering lock to scrub speed. I use a tilt set up and it’s impossible to drive like that. Another thing is that all the top guys are driving a Red Bull. Is it really quicker? Seems crazy if they made that car the quicker in the game.

Just had the guy below drive the wrong way around the track to ram me. I bet it’s not the first time it’s happened. Would be great if he were to get his just deserts! Questionable name too..

They’ve just issued a fix. I have to say though it livened up the event though. Actually having to overtake cars made it more interesting!

Anyone else noticed that to get 19th on the grid you need to do a 1:19. is this an error or the way things are going to be now? That’s a very tough time and I reckon you need to have 2200 pi to get that

That was maybe the only problem. I couldn’t spare 2 hours and was only on for 30 min. I understand why they wanted to do it like that though

I just wanted to say that I thought the Esports final was great. I was pleased it was only quali and it was was cool to be racing against tough opposition. Technically for me it ran fine with little lag (opposing cars jumping around). I’d definitely do it again

They’ve just announced a fix. Just update your game in the google or apple store

Rot10ronnys set ups are similar to mine. My theory: 1. keep brakes at 90. anything more and you’ll be slower 2. go high on lightweight (this‘ll get you out of the corners fast). Power helps too 3. aero is only important to get a high top speed down a long straight for example Baku. Aero gives you nothing in the corners

One other point. At the last update they made the customer car a bit worse. It understeers more now. Maybe that contributed?

I was thinking the same until I reviewed my set ups and realised due to gaining new parts I was running too much brake (134). Have you tried looking at setups again?

I don’t think your competitor really had 0pi. It’s just a software bug. Quite often it goes in combination with you not getting any safe driver bonus

I’ve been adjusting my set ups and now I think I’m in a good place. Basically anywhere with slow corners I have a lot of lightweight and anything with high top speeds I add more aero. Seems to be working
