Setup work under this conditions very difficult, too soft for the lower part but nearly too hard for the upper part. Track-mix reminds me a little bit on Nürburgring, but more sunny there😂. And of course, like always, in some corners you think "damned, I totally fucked up here" (f. e. around 2:00, corner apex not hit and wrong gear) but a good ride! Excellent!!

    • @abexuro
      @abexuro 3 месяца назад

      Yeah I think the HUD is just wrong, there's no way he's not braking as hard as possible. They have to translate brake pressure values to a percentage, the conversion is probably just configured for a different car. Same with the RPM's, redline seems to be at around 6k.
