Hey there,
A question that I haven't seen anyone ask or comment about here is regarding the unbelievably fast first lap intelligence in the game. Regardless of the mode, the AI's first lap is incredibly speedy. They must have infinite ERS, that's the only explanation.
Has anyone else noticed this?
honestly i feel a completely oposite, i´m very faster than AI on first lap
no, i never start on pole because i like use slow cars, mclaren, haas, alpha tauri, and generally i won 3 or 4 positions in first lap, AI are so slow on first laps because the cars is together and have cars by inside, braking soon and etc
When you’re in the pack of course the cars at the back of the pack go slower, even faster cars. Because the Ai don’t just dive bomb each other or you into every corner. As IRL but at the sharp end off the grid cars will be faster,
You’re gaining places because we can exploit the Ai not being as aggressive as us. First lap I can always get double overtakes into slow corners no problem. We all do that. But for the first few laps the Ai push.
In Irl it’s the reason many times cars shunt another car up the backside when braking into tight corners as they don’t properly anticipate the cars in front being as slow as they thin due to not being able to see what the cars further upfront are doing I’m not just talking F1 as it happens in virtually all race series
The Ai pace is faster because they are pushing just like they do IRL. But they can only go as fast as the cars infront allow them to. Max will go slower on first lap if he starts at the back end off the grid because he’s held up by slower cars. If he starts on pole there’s no catching him if he’s infront after the first corner.
