Round 4 - Grand Prix de Monaco [March 3th]

déja 27e

Very mad, Car just suddenly felt undrivable, Plus i F***ed up on my lap timings

Oh well time for work on a race setup

=> STARTING GRID <=

Did not qualify :

27 - Cyril Derkir

Very happy with my 13th on grid, after having 1 afternoon of testing and a power nap was fresh and ready for Q, 23.0 and a new PB

Pretty happy

17th in a Fondmetal, very pleased. First three laps were quite frustrating, but did a decent lap on my final effort. I knew I'd qualified anyway, so I took a few more risks in final sector and it paid off. Still 2 tenths off my PB, but can't complain!

Aim is to finish higher than I qualified for tomorrow. Going to be tough.

Bon, pas tout compris. Sur mon petit entraînement j'étais dans les 1'24, les 2 premiers runs en qualifs affreux, mais en 1'24, et amélioration de 1"2 au drapeau à damiers

Jesus Martin what a lap

Well done

Martin 1:19!

I did 1'19'6 offline just before going on the server

1 ière Qualif ,

j'aurai pu faire un meilleur chrono,mais bon......

Pensez à Cyril,qui s'est beaucoup entrainé,

je connais cette frustation !

Belle première ligne,avec Guillaume en embuscade !

Attention au départ

Marcus

Demain, suis je Moreno ou Schumacher???

Managed high 1:23s offline but somehow i couldn´t get comfortable online, quite dissapointed with my time

I´ll be happy if i finish this race, i don´t want to repeat the Imola fiasco.

Moreno Marc

Moreno, s'il vous plait.


4s off Greg

I wonder if Gui has overestimated me, because I can't do anything with the car. I just don't understand how I am each time seconds off Greg who drives the same car.

And no, I am not moaning. I am just running out of ideas what I am doing wrong.

I am so frustrated right now it hurts

This was hell...driving without half of track...in the street circuit..it is like flying helicopter in the living room...with invisible walls I hoope I will be able to solve it till tomorrow...

5th on the gridd i´m really pleased . Let´s hope i can bring the car home in another pointscoring position

See my questions above. And post some screenshots so I have an example and see where it happens.

@David : I came to the conclusion that I don't understand open wheelers with medium or high grip. For some people, it's just not possible to be fast with totally different kind of cars. We're in the same boat

Bravo Martin et Gui

les points sont distribués apres la course ...


bien aussi Marcus pour ta 1ere qualif ( maintenant pour une 1ere qualif monaco peut vite se transformer en cadeau empoissonné alors zen )

petite penséé aussi a Cyril , accroche toi ca va venir .

You seem to manage it though JP, or is there a big difference between the Jordan and the Minardi? I saw that you improved quite a lot on your last lap, by far over a second faster.

It seems that you need(!) to lose the rear end grip to turn the car, but I hate it! I spin each time or turn in too soon and drive into the walls. I can't get fast enough round the corners even with different lock and the front end grip is lacking evne though I ran 60/59 wings at times!

...

So if we're nearly in the same boat, I guess I'd need a Jordan or Tyrrell to get anywhere, because I lack the understanding to make my car as fast as Greg and because I lack the skill to drive this kind of mod? And which open wheelers don't have medium or high grip? Everything below the 80ties?

I don't think I am usually that bad with open-wheelers... But here, I watch people going so quick of which I am usually battling with

David, this seems to be a problem you come up against quite often now. It wouldn't surprise me if you told me that you did your very first laps just moments before Quali started, or even during Quali. Seeing as you joined the server firstly without the anti-cut shows that is probably true.

That's half the problem. You're in so many damn leagues, you never have enough time to practice for them. It's something that I used to do in the past too. But for 2013 all I'm doing are a couple of series here, a couple of series in GPVWC, RDLMS which is only going to be once a month, and GPROC which doesn't exactly require practice, so you're excused for that.

I, for a fact know you're not slow in openwheelers. Just do some damn practice.

By looking at the real life championship standings, I'd rate the Jordan a little higher than Minardi, but in the mod I don't know.
My qualifying session shows that I had 20ish laps of training at Monaco + the Adelaide test race. and that's all with the mod. I had a decent result because Monaco is special, I'm useless everywhere else. It was the same with the F1 79 and the ground effect + qualify tires.

You drive in the different touring car series at Race Department, and also here so I suppose it's just that you are used to driving a car with more frontal weight distribution and that has a lower power-to-weight ratio, so maybe it's just your driving style?

finaly I forced it to work....playing with GPU settings helps...uff...and times in racing trim do´t look that bad...

moi si je fais un tour hors ligne je me retrouve avec le meme probleme que tout le monde a eu sur Phoenix c est a dire entre 1.5s et 2 s au tour plus lent . il faut modiifer quoi pour tourner dans les memes temps en ligne et hors ligne ?

Enlever toutes les aides sauf l'embrayage auto Les autres rajoutent du lest (l’invulnérabilité entre autre)
