@Apophis-STRKind of the opposite here. Started Career Mode last night as Verstappen's teammate. 90AI. Struggled to keep up with VER in Bahrain and came in second. The AI kill me at the exit of turn 10 and gain from two to four tenths on me there. All things gained in sector one are lost. Then I have to make a comeback in sector three. ERS management is paramount.
I dominated in Jeddah and won. I love this track. Once I get a rhythm going its like I get tunnel vision and the car feels like it is on rails. Get turns one and two right and you can pick up several tenths on the AI as a buffer for the DRS straights.
Definitely have to dial in older setups in GP short race mode. That way I can see if my soft tires are going to overheat. Then go back to Career with a well tuned setup.
- ScarDuck143 years agoLegend@Apophis-STR It Depends my team car first race… no chance. In a redbull or Ferrari yes.
- Apophis-STR3 years agoSeasoned Ace@ScarDuck14 Well you could still beat the teams close around you, I guess it also depends on what upgrade you have chosen at the start.
I usually took rear downforce and drag reduction, these really give you a good start.- ScarDuck143 years agoLegend@Apophis-STR Yeah same: rear downforce and double drag then chassis for facilities and minor weight reduction before Bahrain.
Engine if I have any spare points I upgrade ers. But I only upgrade engine during first season if I got massive discounts and spare points.
Focus on weight reduction then drag then distribution and downforce. Your not winning championships in first season so I plan ahead Getting chassis and aero to top spot: second season best engine and powertrain and durability facilities. But still only upgrade engine parts if I’m losing time on track.
- Hansenhaus3 years agoNew Veteran@Apophis-STR Good to know. I have to keep practicing then! I definitely do better with turn 10 when I lift and coast into that corner but the AI will dive bomb you if they are close behind. Often they will go off track doing it.
