Lack of revs in 8th gear

Recommended Posts

Is anyone noticing a possible lack of top speed? Driving with my foot to the floor on very long straights (like Spa for instance), once in 8th gear the Rev lights don’t even show, and feels sluggish. 

Top speed I manage to hit is roughly 190mph. Does this sound right? I’ve been driving red bull but this is in standard fuel and ERS modes, and without drs. 

Interesting to know if anyone else is experiencing a similar possible issue?

The point of the lights is to tell the driver when to change up a gear so they wouldn't serve a purpose in 8th gear. I can't check right now but my guess is it's normal for the lights not to show.

Top speed will depend on the car and its setup.
