AI gaining Massive Speed on the straights
It’s like they have DRS the whole race
Forum Discussion
- 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.
- @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.
