Yes they all go out last 2 minute and keep distance from each other so the never meet traffic now sure what you don’t get.
and because is the end of the session the track as better performance and they always do their best time
the practically race in parallel 50 meter from each other all at same time
I understand about draft, clear air etc etc, they still shouldn't be in one stupid massive train for their final attempt, thats dumb, thats not how a real qualifying ends.
- ScarDuck143 years agoLegend@matty0blobber No its not like it is during actual Q3. However generally all F1 drivers in Q3 will all going out in last few minutes and will generally put in their fastest lap. Occasionally someone will bin it.
The devs have coded the Ai to do the same. However with Ai it would have to be scripted with A lot of uniformity. So they will all go out and start their final push lap with a set distance between eachother: if they didn’t and the Ai went out randomly in the last few minutes. It would most likely end up with them getting in the each other’s way resulting in Top ten being all over place every race. For instance a Haas makes into Q3 and goes out on his lap followed by a Red Bull. As Ai isn’t perfect you’ll end up with Red bull Qualifying in 10th because it got stuck behind a Haas. Then everyone would then complain 1st - 10th in Q3 is unrealistic- matty0blobber3 years agoNew Ace
@ScarDuck14Well yeh but i don't understand why a few cars don't drive out starting around the 3/4 min mark instead of them all waiting until theres only 2 minutes left within seconds of eachother.
But you get what i'm on about right? seeing them setting times in a uniform train just kills the realism for me.- 3 years ago
More realistic this way than seeing the top 5 driver not qualified for q3 because of traffic
how often does it happen in real and this is the easiest way to code it
I would hate to see all good driver get traffic 50% of the time because is more realistic the way they came out the pit
