AI gaining Massive Speed on the straights
It’s like they have DRS the whole race
Forum Discussion
What I was reading was Max In Spain went on average 0.4 faster going from soft to hard at least 2 compounds more., while here at Miami with Alonso I was expecting him to go a lot faster going from Medium to soft at least 1 compound better, something like 1.6/ 2 seconds better on average. Yet his average went as follows
medium average 1.33.608
soft average 1.33.236 only 0.372 faster around the same as max did at Spain. And the difference between his 2 fastest times on the different compounds was only 0.8 faster.
Here at Miami, Max's average was soft to medium
soft 1.33.320
medium 1.33.003 So again at least 1 compound more but still went faster 0.3 Yes Alonso had a battle last lap but had a clear track after his pit stop.
I'm sure I heard there should be a 1-second gap between each compound (0.250 25% race) but can't find any information about it, so If anyone can provide a link to the difference in time between the C1,C2,C3,C4 & C5 that would be great.
How not to solve the problem is to remove the AI lap times from race director, something we have had for years. I bet they would never stop you looking at your opponents after match statistics on FIFA, of course not. Why remove the lap times now? My fault? because i like to number crunch.
Roll on F1 manager
@DRudd13 As analysis for your clip as i expected Alonso does the fast lap in free air and then is slowed by Russel, as the AI dont overtake that easily Alonso gets slowed down especially on the last lap battling half the lap with Russel.
You overestimate the difference it makes with fresh tyres, the Softs are only about 6 tenths faster than the Medium in Miami..
Its just a rumour with 1s gap between compounds, IRL its actually more 0.4-0.5s between each tyre but C1 1s slower than C2 but these gaps depend on the track!! in the game each compound is 2% grip apart of the next which makes an average gap of 0.5-0.7s
Regarding the race director idk why they changed it, stupid change really.

@Meza994But surely Alonso shouldn't be having problems passing Russell the first time he gets DRS uses his ERS has fresher, softer tyres and a slipstream. It's meant to be easier to overtake this year, but in game with everything going in your favour it's still a struggle for the AI, never mind the player.
Might have to dig the PlayStation 2 out and see if this still works, lol.
I had more chances to overtake the AI at Bahrain, but I couldn't do it either, see here https://answers.ea.com/t5/General-Discussion/3-race-AI-test-75-amp-65-picture-data/m-p/11644756/highlight/true#M8021 for 4 and a half laps I had everything to my advantage over Alonso. But lap after lap, I wasn't getting close to overtaking on level 75. But I'd done all the overtaking Saniz had to do at Saudi on the weekly challenge on level 90. So it's not as if I don't know how to do it.

I really can't take the credit for it.
