Re: Cars on equal performance not equal ?

I only drive the my team car. So can’t comment on the aero or weight distribution. @Meza994  will be able to answer that.

However.  The feel of the cars handling different could be quite simply down to the Camera view.   As Each teams car especially in Tv pod.  Are all slightly different.  

If the FOV for each car is different it will explain a lot off why the car feels different.

If you’re not aware. FOV setting has a huge effect on racing and FPS games.   Don’t ask me to explain it.  Instead search YouTube for pov settings.  Video  Doesn’t have to be specifically about this game.  There are hundreds of good 10 minutes videos by sim racers that explain it. Try this one https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=4yYeiAHsdr0

Put this way. Once I was ignorant of FOV settings.  Then I watched a video on it. Reduced my FOV settinbg and went out on track.   I was instantly over a second a lap faster on every track.

    In F1 2021, I had a setup that was stable at high speed on the equal Red Bull car, but if I loaded it on the equal Mercedes car, it would spin over bumps or elevation changes, so they were not identical.
