@HempyjrThis is over the biggest stinker of all of it. With all the speculation, all racing leagues have now been thrown into doubt. With drivers driving very aggressively towards Ronhaar in PSGL/WOR, it makes the sport look bad. The continuing silence from the eSports organisers and EA/CM show that they aren't willing to talk about the issue and create a platform where everyone can race fairly.
ACC have a similar cheating scandal in parallel to this one at the moment. However, the developer, Kunos have somewhat acknowledged the problem and added a new community manager who is interacting with the community about various other issues too.- ScarDuck143 years agoLegend
I personally think the load cell thing is a ploy. It’s the typical kind of response from a young person that lacks life experience, that is trying to cover up wrongdoing. It’s a weak and obvious excuse to those off us that have been round the block a plenty off times and tried the same weak excuses when we were young
- Cpayne323 years agoHero+@TotosHeadphones The recent incidents with Ronhaar is just crossing the line completely. At the end of the day it is just an allegation and bot proof. If he isn’t cheating then fair play but when you have Jarno being as vocal as he has you have to feel something is there

My take: there is no way EA/Codemasters can declare that there weren't issues in the last official eSports when they clearly have a significant number of the top participants highlighting concerns. Nothing can or will be done retrospectively as far as I can see and we need to focus on what happens in the future.
- Cpayne323 years agoHero+@Hempyjr Yeah it sure is concerning. This is why F1 23 must have some form of anti cheat system and a much better reporting system. I refuse to play ranked online because i just get taken out intentionally so don’t bother
- Hempyjr3 years agoSeasoned Ace@Cpayne32 Well that's why i don't play social racing. Waiting 10 minutes to get into a race and then being smashed at the first corner or in the first lap and it's done, waiting another 10-15 minutes for another race. Online i play only in a league with my brother and a friend against AI obviously. What raise me some questions about Ronhaar is that in some videos you can clearly see him missing the apex and keeps carying on like nothing happen and loses way too less time or nothing at all. If i take a corner similar to him, with AI level 90, i lose 0.5 or even 0.7 instantly, not to mention AI level 110 or esports players.

Most of the time, these lobbies provide fair racing.
