Is F1 eSports dead?
I notice the F1 esports tab is not present in F1 22. Is the series finished? Is Jarno, Marcel, Brendon etc out of work? Maybe it was a flop. Anyone got any info?. EDIT: I thank the Gods of Death an...

In TT modes the esports crew are slow. There is others much faster but yet they cant pass these challenger series.
If anyone says race pace is different than a one hotlap TT then I will not be conversing with that person in regards to that topic.
The eSports drivers probably don't want their best setups to be available for everyone to see...
(Race pace IS different too.)

Ha ha.Jarno and co never shut up about about TT boards being broken. And anyone who is faster they say that person is a cheater.
- @ALittleTiger7 There is some TT times that are like 10 seconds ahead of their best lap. Last video Jarno was beating WR at all tracks in wet conditions and in Bahrain the best lap was a 1:31.034, 6 seconds off the best lap time in dry conditions. So yeah that's definitely cheats.
- Hello @TomasSlb24
Yes, there are some TT times that are questionable but here is an example of what I'm on about. This FACTUAL event took place during the F1 2020 game/season.
Marcel Keifer was 3 thousandths of a second ahead of Jarno Opmeer in the Austria TT board.
Jarno eventually beat Marcel by a further 2 thousanths of a second. Jarno said "easy peesy there is more in it", indicating that there is more time to be gained.
When Jarno showed the global leaderboard he was 7th and Marcel was 8th. Jarno started muttering about the others above him were cheaters and that the TT boards were a mess.
The player that was directly above Jarno was 1 hundredth of a second quicker.
My source is Jarno Opmeer's youtube account.- @ALittleTiger7 At the end of the day TT times mean nothing. There is so much more to take into account, like race craft, managing ers, tyres…. So much more than TT where conditions are always perfect with no tyre temps.
Im not saying your wrong in terms of how other people can brake though into e-sports, there are so many people competing for limited opportunities, but more to take into account than times on TT.
