AI gaining Massive Speed on the straights
It’s like they have DRS the whole race
Forum Discussion
Here is an example of how OP the AI seem to be out of slow corners and onto long straights. Ocon was 0.8 seconds behind at the start of the straight and passed him by the end of it. https://youtu.be/ZJA73JKlmjE?t=350 At around 5:50 in this video
@VemundVemundSeems to me like rubberbanding.. Even ERS and slipstream dont cause such a swing of speed advantage
And yes its not rubberbanding because it keeps going on even when they are past him but what i try to say is its not a physics thing theres genuinely something going wrong
Correction: Might also be for some reason horrendously bad drag values for the MyTeam car, need more esports vids with low downforce setups in normal cars to say more but thats really extreme
Yes, the video of Jarno Opmeer in Miami really demonstrates what we are talking about. The AI is breezing past, not just faster. If they would gain a bit that's one thing, but they really come flying past me even before DRS is even activated.
But it's not like it happens to me every race and every track. Last week at Jeddah I was quite close to the pace of the AI on the straights. Not sure what's going on, but it's really weird. At Bahrain I literally stopped racing after a few attempts as my rear wing level was locked and I just couldn't come close to the AI on the straights, even though I was faster in the twisty bits.
