Forum Discussion
Hey everyone,
we are still looking into your feedback about the straight line speed of AI drivers, and would like to get some more information from you to analyse it.
Could you please provide us the following details:
- Videos / Clips of sequences where you feel the AI has too much speed on a straight while you maybe use DRS / DRS+ERS / ERS and have no ability to catch the car in front.
- What difficulty level did you use for your race?
- Which assists are you currently using?
That would help us and the game team massively to understand your reports and see how we can tackle that feedback of yours 👍
If you have any questions, please let us know. You can also post links to YouTube videos / upload clips to trusted websites like streamable.com.

- AI on 80 difficulty - Multiplayer race with AI, equal cars.
- I'm using no assists and default setup for Spa (whichever preset it auto-selects, which I think is 'higher top speed' preset 4).
- To make a pass under DRS, I needed to use ERS from the exit of Raidillon down the entire straight, while having the tow while the AI didn't. And he still manages to start magically pulling away into a 9th gear at the end of the straight. Please note that I didn't run out of ERS in this clip - turned off ERS at 3%, but he started kicking into overdrive before I turned off ERS.

Not sure, if I get the isuue in this video. AI (Alpha Tauri?) has DRS as well and you basically go side by side. I think the other car in front of you is also too far to give you any slipstream.
- 4 years ago@gizt7 I'm 4 tenths behind the car in front, which realistically would give a noticeable advantage but I'm not sure if it translates to the game.
The problem is that I pull about a foot in front, and then the AI suddenly gets a speed boost and pulls back alongside, while I am full throttle and burning ERS.
