Pour les connaisseurs, est ce que je peux me fier au set par défaut?

Oui tu peux. Peut être rajouter un click d'aileron arrière pour stabiliser, mais ça va sous virer dans les courbes rapides.

What are the optimal temps for the tyres? Mine are running at 120 c in all tyres almost, while on medium in the Lancia. For the Sauber, with the Hards, I am at 140c?!

Weird I have all tires around 100°C all the time.

Subject: Re: Test race @ Suzuka [Dec. 19th] Tue 11 Dec 2012 - 21:10

I was using the default set up, I'll probably develop a set up some other time, but I thought these temps were quite high scratch

What is the optimum temperature for the mediums?

Subject: Re: Test race @ Suzuka [Dec. 19th] Tue 11 Dec 2012 - 21:10

My god, I beat Lorenzo's time on the Hotlap board.

I'd better savour this, it's not going to happen again! I love these cars!!!!

EDIT: I knew it wouldn't last long, great time Lorenzo. Your reputation precedes you.

Leaning the tires at the right angle seems to make the tires a LOT happier in may ways here.

1:44,839 for Lorenzo Rolling Eyes

Yea...another case of "how many times will I get lapped - OK, deduct that much fuel"

The tires respond very quick because they have a small slip angle, due to being a very rigid carcass to withstand the huge aero loads. It's very easy to stretch them too much with large steering input. In cars with such a big amount of ground effect and mostly balanced towards the rear, entering the turn slower to prevent overstressing the front tires and then accelerating to gain speed through all the corner allows the ground to build downforce and go faster. Killing speed till the apex by means of forcing the front, as with other type of cars, will only cause huge heating in the fronts. It's tricky at first because it seems counterintuitive, but that's how it also worked in real life. Test race @ Suzuka [Dec. 19th] - Page 4 420535

I won't be able to make the race after all, but I will definitely be here for the season. As much as I love Lancia though, I don't think I can use it when the championship starts, that thing is controllable but so sloooowwwww.

Subject: Re: Test race @ Suzuka [Dec. 19th] Mon 17 Dec 2012 - 3:02

Je serais présent avec la Sauber #63 Please. Et certainement OK pour le championnat également.

Nice to see some drivers from over the pond joining us
good to have you back again Trevor and Paul Cool

Subject: Re: Test race @ Suzuka [Dec. 19th] Mon 17 Dec 2012 - 20:01

I am very sorry, but I have to withdraw from the test race Crying or Very sad

The final WTM race is on the same day and it's my priority.

It's a shame, I could have tested the Sauber under race conditions Sad

But I should be back for more in the full championship.

Aprés 2 installations complètes sur rF light, j'ai toujours le même problème : les skins sauber sont entierement bleues et je ne vois pas la piste en online. :hum:

si vous avez une idée, ou mieux, si ça vous est arrivé, j'attends vos suggestions parce que là, je ne sais plus quoi faire :smil20:
