@Ultrasonic_77Ive been wrong before so no big surprise there but the 3 people behind Lee and Donoso are doing something.
Obviously they are - working on race strategy and if they have access to the live stream I'd expect someone to be keeping an eye on that for info. on other drivers too. I'm just not sure this has anything to do with if drivers use cockpit cam or not 🙂.
I don't think spectator mode shows the view each driver is using actually. There's just a straight choice of broadcast or TV pod views so currently even if a driver is using cockpit cam I don't think a viewer would notice. This could be changed of course. Thinking this through though, we'd only really notice a difference from eSports switching to cockpit cam if it then lead to the drivers using this mode more outside of eSports so that more of their regular streams/videos were like this.
After watching eSports and some league races, I hope they increase the skill gap again, as it stands it looks like nobody is bothering to push because sticking to someone is too easy with drs unless the pace difference is really, really big, such a snoozefest with all of them just sitting and doing nothing, even more exaggerated by the fact that overtaking in said trains require so much ers. Codies please

What would you propose be changed?
I think DRS trains are a somewhat inevitable consequence of lots of closely matched drivers in cars with equal performance. The game trying to mimic real-life aerodynamic changes is probably making them more likely too. I have still enjoyed the first three races though, it's just that you have periods with little 'action'. Qualifying is well worth watching too of course given it's huge impact on the final result.
Increase dirty air and/or slipstream works when you're 3-4 tenths back, not almost 1 sec back, this should increase the skill gap and those with more pace will be able to overtake others without essentially depleting their whole battery (the more pace you have, the closer you can follow another car), and those with less place won't be able to just hang in the drs. There are gaps in quali between the top and the bottom, but the race is a drs train from p1 to last place, might as well start calling results from quali in that case
