So it's Bahrain time.

I think F1nners can stay in bed this weekend, (or down the pub) he might of won already. Or can someone knock that controller using freak of nature off the top spot

Oh I'm comming for you OldPhart!

If you have put some times in but not on the list, add me on steam.

Think I've got a video of that lap if it will help anyone, it's a bit stuttery though as I can't seem to get smooth recordings with AMD's play.tv software

Added you! I think I posted a 1.34.402 at Bahrain last night. I know I can go quicker...cos lewdogga was my next target to beat.

Just did a couple of laps of bahrain, not a fan of the circuit tbh. That hissing sound was driving me crazy though so stopped fairly quickly. Don't remember that hissing sound being there before but looks like others are equally annoyed by it.

Anyone know of a video series or things I could read to understand the basics of how to race and common F1 terminology used?

I suck so bad, I even struggle to follow the line on the track

Got a G29 wheel, if that helps.

set your logi profile for wheel to -

100
0
0
0
360 degrees.
no centering.
dont let game adjust wheel

put the 3d lines on to give you a rough idea.if you struggling badly.
use other peoples set ups.V12 and tr limitless have pretty decent set ups.
or start with balanced until you cant get any faster.
you need to learn the tracks as you do them.it isnt to hard as most are only just over a minute in length.lines are very important so dont over do the corners in smooth out fasst early on the power.being clean is more important that speed.

just practice and it does come together.or watch some fast people and see how they line up on the corners and such.for the track you doing.

ABU DHABI
MEXICO

if anyone wants to set some times.

just going through all tracks to get some times down then build on em. :cool:

CK61938 · 10 Sep 2016 at 17:29

Managed to do 1.34.119 in Bahrain. I know I can go that little bit quicker! So still hoping for under 1.34!

Phantom Shadow · 10 Sep 2016 at 20:47

Was doing awful with the brake points and lines in bahrain, the track just feels so much wider than I'm used to. Ended up turning on the guide line for a bit but feel like I've cheated now as managed a 1:32.15ish with it on.

Crippled Potato · 11 Sep 2016 at 07:36

I'll be dropping in to do a few laps this afternoon. Must secure my podium position again!

Managed a 1:33:050 in Bahrain using controller and full TC.

SPARC · 11 Sep 2016 at 16:16

Just picked the game up for some fun on this boring Sunday afternoon, looks like I have more time to find. Using 360 controller + ABS

1.32.905

The wheel spin is unreal in this game. Coming from pCars it's kinda hard to feather the trigger just right. I'm sure I'll get used to it.

Try without ABS, you'll gain time just from that

Results for Bahrain

Sensing a trend

Just like the real F1. Good work F1inners, dg and racer.
Nice try Mr potato, so close.
Did'nt have much time to put into this track, but then, someone has to come last

BlizzardX · 12 Sep 2016 at 09:10

So caved and bought this, despite me going I've got too many games. Steam name is Benoire if anyone wants to add, will be on in a bit I think once I've done some more Fallout 4!

Your missing someone on your friends list, will check when I get home but they got a 1:31. 5xx so much closer to me.

Bring on Singapore

SPARC · 12 Sep 2016 at 11:25

managed to improve a little bit.

1.32.788 just behind potato.

Added a few of you, Steam name Freon

Crippled Potato · 12 Sep 2016 at 12:48

So this week it's Singapore! Just be aware to give yourself a lot of time to do this one, the track is long and it's ruthless about corner cutting. It's very easy to go on the power early and push wide outside the track limits, so it can be very frustrating.

I've put down a benchmark of 1.43.857.

Go chase it
