How Realistic is F122? (According to an F1 Engineer)

@ScarDuck14 Well its a very interesting video but the test is not very good.. No tyre overheating or tyre wear and even if we assume that the track grip is about right ingame compared to real life then the traction is still worse ingame than in real life because IRL they deploy much more of the ERS at lower gears than we do ingame..
Ingame its 60% of maximum ERS for all gears until like 300 kph or so which isnt the fastest, instead it would be more like 100% deployment at 2nd-4th or even 5th gear and the decrease much more, also depending on how long the straights are to not waste any power.. What im trying to say is that in those low gears the traction must withstand 64bhp more than ingame yet it seems like (at least till tyre temps hit) ingame is the same traction as IRL which would mean IRL has more traction..

@Meza994 Is this why higher gears are better in game then....different gear ratios?
Comparing gears used between the two might be helpful?
Just curious🤔

- @BadMayh3m No thats a different story entirely, thats to do with torque IMO which gets ever lower the higher the gear at quite considerable rates. Different gear ratios are a thing though as proven in the video and fairly obvious as well especially 8th gear which is set too low ingame but thats not a game changer but we need to wait what expects us in the next game, maybe it will be spot on :D
