This time I put the AI to 100%, it says Alien. I made a few interesting moves to test how the AI react and to be honest I think iRacing have done an outstanding job. Only thing they really need to fix is the positioning. I did not qualify and I did not win so I hope they fix this little glitch. Have a go at the AI it really is a great way to practice. See you at the next one.

      I think they need to perhaps enforce some how the safety during the form up lap. Cars should be a minimum and maximum distance from each other to stop those who hold back and then get a run at the start, usually causing some form of accident on the way through and the weaving must stop well before the green perhaps set a time depending on the length of the form up.

    Good drive, Trev. Zaid's move was very poor, but vaguely predictable. We could see him getting close and impatient for several laps before the incident. In my opinion it's not worth a protest. It was just a poorly executed, impatient move on a corner that isn't great for overtaking. He didn't leave you anywhere near enough space on the inside and he should feel bad about it. You probably could have survived it if you'd taken a normal line through the corner, staying all the way over to the right on entry. Had he tried to make a dive it's likely he would have carried too much and gone wide, permitting the switcheroo, if not and he got it stopped in time, you'd have been alongside with the advantage into the second part of the chicane. I noticed as well there were a few occasions where you took defensive lines and didn't really need to. My rule of thumb is that unless your attacker is about 0.2s behind or closer, it's not worth defending because they're just not close enough.

    Don't knock yourself down, Trev. That was a good effort. While you may have been running in the top 5 for a good stretch, at the end of the day, even when you fell back a bit you made the right calls not to fight too hard to keep the positions, which you only lost because of some unfortunate mistakes on your part. Had you had another 15 minutes or so I'm confident you would have got all 4 of those places back, because that train was bound to turn into carnage. In terms of advice, I feel like you're taking some very shallow lines through a lot of corners, or turning in too early for others. For example, you enter turn 1 very, very close to the inside, which really compromises your entry speed. You can definitely carry a lot more if you open it up, best example of it was on the start of lap 6. The worst example would have been at the start of lap 8. Surtees (T4) is a good example of turning in too early. You can really carry loads of speed down the back straight if you turn in really late and aim for a late apex, lap 5 was almost perfect here, if you'd been on the gas a second or so later you would have been flying! On almost every other lap you're turning in so early that it's really costing you. As I said at the start though, cracking effort mate, coming away with only a 3x for 'off-tracks' in a split like this is a great acheivement and running in the top 5 for as long as you did is brilliant, you'll be finding yourself there loads more once you mop up those last little inconsistencies! Keep your head up, man!

Don't know how you managed to split your attention between a message from work and being able to talk about the event at the same time. Looks like it worked out for the best, though. Qualified P9 and managed to finish P9, too. Some tasty overtakes in there as well and some good wreck avoidance, too.

    It's frustrating to see you get run over so often, Trev, because you've clearly got pace to keep up and finish in, at least, the top 10 in these splits. Your qualifying result proves it at least. Go back and have another look at the incident with car #2 on lap 1 at the chicane. It looked to me, frame by frame, that he opened up his steering at the apex to go for the right-hander, despite the fact he would certainly have been able to see you all the way through the first part. If it looks like he opened up his steering - protest it under an intentional wreck - it's not malicious, but his deliberate inputs and his choice to open up the steering put his car through yours and caused the wreck. He had plenty of decision-making time available to avoid that.

  • @DanCrossRacing
    @DanCrossRacing 6 месяцев назад

    Bad luck, Trev. Gutted about getting binned out by #12. It's one of those nasty situations where you can see that he's trying to avoid the collision by braking, but inexperience has taken over and he's probably still steering towards the corner, hoping the car will get some traction and start turning, rather than steering straight (for maximum braking potential) or away (to ensure he won't hit you). Great racing with #21 and #4 though. I suspect that has made up for the torpedoing ever so slightly. At least you didn't lose SR as well!

    Cracking race, Trev. Really well driven. Bit of a shame about the collision with Henry but it's always ambitious to go 2 wide through rollercoaster regardless. I understand why you haven't been qualifying recently, but I really believe you could challenge for wins if you can qualify in future and get through the first few corners without being punted! I think the reason the guy in the lead was so far ahead was because, yes, he was comparatively very quick, but also because he never really had anyone challenging him. Whereas you were often defending through Oak Tree, for example, which was slowing you down.

      Oops, good pickup. See Old Man iRacing is showing his age. Cheers, and happy new year to you.

    Trev, I hope you saved that replay to go back and clip later. What Nick did is slam-dunk protest material. Completely inexcusable and deserves a holiday or reminder of the rules from the stewarding team. I'm really sorry that happened to you, buddy, there was no need for it.

      HI, hope you had a good Christmas. Yes I have saved the race but held back on protest. I think there are a lot of people at the moment who are either new or not caring at all.

      Thank mate, my Christmas was decent, spent a lot of time with the family so can't complain! Fair enough on the protest, you're a far more forgiving man than I! @@OldManiRacing-fj4lg

      I may lodge a protest but have been pretty busy with speedway commentating and work, still pretty peeved at what he did. See you on track some time.@@DanCrossRacing

    Great drive, Trev and and even better recovery after your twirl at T4! Well done! I think your man #4 didn't necessarily turn down into you deliberately, to me it looks like he had a bit of an oversteer snap because that car rotated far too quickly to be a deliberate input, it's still entirely on him, but I don't think it was his intention to cut down into you.

      Thanks mate, it's all a learning curve even after all these years. Having fun that is the main thing. Hope you have a good break.

    Good drive, Trev, strong finish and really well done for staying out of the mayhem on Lap 1. I did burst out with a good chuckle when I saw the lunacy in your mirror at T2! Shame about the minor errors though, I think you could have easily managed P4 if not for those, but that's racing I guess! Also, fun fact, I was in split two for this time slot - we were literally racing at exactly the same time!

      Wow how about that, thanks for the comments and the follow. You must have been in the middle of the night over there. All the best to you.

    Cracking race, mate. Really well managed, save for your L1 pirouette you kept it nice and consistent and balanced aggression with caution well when each was necessary. I definitely agree, I don't feel anywhere near as confident in the tyres in the early stages in the MX-5 after this update, doesn't mean it's a bad thing, just something we have to adjust to. Thanks for the namedrop!

    Bad luck mate, I think Damien was being a bit of an entitled, impatient git, honestly. You defended well into Acque Minerali where he wasn't alongside at any point until he put himself on the curb on the outside in the middle of the corner and crashed into you. Then into Variante Alta you were defending the middle of the road (good) he never got alongside (good) so he backs out to try to get a better exit (also good) and then punts you mid-corner because he's not accounted for the reduced speed you'll be carrying because of your line. 100% on him, don't worry about it. Good drive if it weren't for that.

      Thanks for that it's been a bit of a journey so far. will keep on track.

    Outstanding drive, mate! Well deserved podium! Brilliant defensive work in the closing laps, managed to keep it consistent and clean even with a big GR86 looming in the mirror!
