I think in aarav’s road to glory series, Albon transfered to Mercedes Granted, the Merc in that series isn’t that great, but just a bit of food for thought
Your ability to get the power down earlier by short shifting at turn 3 and therefore get away from Kreaser is what won you this race. Great driving throughout!
So, I'm a complete noob who doesn't know jack about racing or cars and I've just started getting into Super GT's videos. How exactly does short shifting work? I did a quick google search and got the basic concept of it, but I still don't understand how it provides greater acceleration when compared to normal (optimal?) shifting. Any explanation would be awesome!
@@jonj1220 maybe not exactly better acceleration, but a more stable car with less chances of wheelspin. this is not the easiest corner in terms of stability (if what he really meant was turn 2)
Punts are only half of the problem. The other half is: I'm an idiot. I may well be so interested in the turn 1 carnage that I forget to steer clear of it. I wouldn't be one of the punters - I know how brakes work in theory - but im not gonna be coming 4th, either 😅
Signed up with Aston Martin for this season and the V12 was really good as I qualified 1st and finished 1st in my first race and second race started 9th and finished 3rd. The 1st in the 1st race was also my 1st win in FIA races. 👍👍👍👍👍
Agreed, this race was awesome!! Btw, as your personal lap robot fanboi: putting guys behind you is one thing, doing it with all laps within .4 of a second of each other for most of the race is amazing
You know, I was never into racing type games until I came across Super GT and I was just enticed by the gameplay and narration. Very good content, thank you.
What a race. Your list of lap times is a thing of beauty - it took 12 laps for you to make any kind of a mistake, and even then it was a minor one. All the practice is clearly paying off.
I've seen a few videos now and I cannot stress enough how much I love your commentary style: Super chill, no tone changes but that humor striking every once in a while making it way more hilarious. I'd love to hear your voice commenting F1 or F2/F3
I have been on an absolute binge on your channel since I started playing a bit of gt sport back in February this year, especially since the F1 season is on hold for current world events. Your tips, driving style, and commentary really keep me hooked and informed. Im still always thinking about the move you put on someone at Interlagos (recently I think ) in the AMG at turn one. Just great stuff man I love your content.
One of the finest performances I have ever seen you perform. I was on the edge of my nerves the entire race. Can't remember when I cheered so hard like this. Thank you SuperGt, and congratulations!
That race was mega intense. Your racecraft always impresses me. You dont put in the time others do, but you make up for it with your natural racing ability!
Great drive! I personally think that psychic games have played a big part before your first overtake of Kreaser. I imagine seeing your opponent get FL after FL is going to put quite a lot of stress on you as the leader.
Maybe. I think he had it under control for the most part. He would also know that I had the slipstream and therefore it would have been easier for me to get a faster lap. I just think it was the general pressure of the race + tyre wear that caught him.
my heart was pumping at the end there!!! You are an excellent racer and commentator to be able to get me(just watching the video), my adrenaline going!
Really nice being able to focus on the race, defending, etc... and not looking over your shoulder to see if anyone comes to push you off the track... Congrats on the victory! Nice race!
Slightly unrelated, but... Can we all just take a moment to appreciate that absolutely gorgeous F4H livery? Good job, Steve! Congratulations on the win.
There are those who walk the walk, there are those who talk the talk - this boy does both, and do a Google search mid-race as well! "Get in there Lewis" indeed Steve - Sir Stirling would have been proud as well.
Wow! What a great race! I'm very much looking forward to getting back into racing. My CSL DD Pro has been ordered and will hopefully ship today before Fanatec starts their inventory week. Cheers!
What a win! If that was me I would probably bottle it due to the pressure and it was definitely one of the best races to watch! Keep it up and stay safe out there GT 👍
Got this platinum a while back. I got to 50 by grinding ~12 minute Blue Moon Bay races with a Ferrari F40. Wound up taking several months of doing 3-4 races a day. All I’ll say is good luck and have some podcasts ready lol, it’s a true test of endurance and boredom survival.
Solid drive mate! Went for Mercedes myself, on course to finish 4th on a relatively high level lobby but get punted off the track and end-up finishing 8th.
Great race Steve, well done and get in there! I struggled in my races, mainly due to the tire wear late in every race. It's probably part me and the fact that hard tires are trash. In my first race, there was quite the R4M festival going on, and only 13 people finished lol.
Well done in that race. Some smart driving. My race was also very close. You made a good choice with Mercedes tho. Both cars are very decent in their category.
Heck of a race there. I kept getting booted off the dang track. Mid level B racers are frustrating. One accidental tap that does nothing means that booting you into the shadow realm is an appropriate response.
If more MP races were this competitive without all the bullshittery, I could get into it more. My experiences are there is always 1-2 people in the lobby that exist purely to make everyone else's race as miserable as possible, essentially killing the desire to keep "grinding up your driver rating". The whole point of playing games is to have fun. Getting constantly torpedoed and spun out or having to constantly play dodgeball with idiots is hardly fun and just makes me want to play something else.
Problem is you have to slog through the lower level lobbies to get to where super gt is, im by no means any good at this game even though i have a D drive rating my sr is at A and im matching with AA and AS players and ive only done about 30 online races
Hey Steve about the EXP... you earn exp faster doing campaign races such as gr.1 monza (professional), red bull x2014 @circuit de la sarthe (pro) and others. Hope this recommendation is helpful!
SuperGT: "I'm going to run this entire race without editing any of it"
Me with tears in my eyes: "Hell yeah"
That's when you know it is going to be one of the best videos
See how AMAZING that was? what a great race!
@@semicolton Qqqqq
Yeah, that's a "get in there" moment.
"Two curbs inside the sausage" - it's the technical language that sets Super GT apart. I always feel informed.
Lmao! Brilliant 😂
aka the sausage inside you
What about the “dying of death” my personal favourite quote of his
Anyone else oddly aroused..? No? Just me? Right then... Carry on.
In one of his recent videos he said "once you ride the sausage"
Alex Albon: "I'm picking Mercedes, I've never actually picked them before"
Bono: Get in there Alex.
Like clockwork even in the virtual world
@@thelarry383 You know it Lebrony.
lol
I think in aarav’s road to glory series, Albon transfered to Mercedes

That god-tier, seven-race clean streak though
Still yet to get the 15 in a row achievement!!! R4M urges keep striking me

i noticed that bc i drive that way but always over rev, gonna try shifting faster like he’s done here
Tip for low level lobbies: You can't get punted into turn one if you qualify last *Points to head*
funny thing is when i started i used this tactic so much. i do this all the time in shitty f1 lobbies too lmao
@@mtnmoo i personally rarely win from the back but i never get punted
it's the only way out of the gulag
These are the things you learn in Forza lobbies
Punts are only half of the problem.

I love how you manage to sparkle some humor into your videos even when they're tense like this one. Well deserved victory, congratulations.
I couldn't like, it was 69 likes.

Not a good start for the season
You should contact PD for them not following the rules of corona.
19:38 laughing by bullocks of, thanks for making my day, Super GT
Whenever my gf asks me why I laugh during racing videos: 19:37 is a good example of why I disturb the hum of the engines with my shrieks
Fish: *looks down at his back button*
Fish: *sigh* "this isnt me."
Super GT: Gettin a Penalty for not Social Distancing
Me: Getting a Penalty for getting Punted into a Wall
21:45 Super GT: I fear no man... but that thing
*looks back at the Nissan on 3rd place*
It scares me
**muffled screams intensify**
GT proverb of the day:
The dog may be mans best friend
But,
Extending on the sausage curb is drivers best friend
I was so into the race that I almost die laughing at 19:39 lmao
*Coffin Dancers* like this.
Yea oh my gosh I loved it
Yeah especially since it only shows up 4 0.1 seconds!🤣🤣
haven't watched yet, but i can already tell that Steve did a great job
Get in there Steve
Man, it's scary how good that Atenza is around corners! Especially considering it also has 600+ HP!
5:23 that engine sound jesus christ xD like a monster saying let me out of this cage

Alan McG I signed up with Nissan and I’m learning how to use Tracyion control At 1 when I used to use 3. I have unlocked a new level of rage
IMO, renault is the best choice since their Group 3 car is superb around the corners
I signed with McLaren
You two fought incredibly without a single touch, brilliant and smooth racing!
17:09 "The Mercedes really doesn't require any thinking to drive, which is good because I don't have much of a brain" Priceless
Me driving a Renault: *big brain*
I just got the platinum trophy a couple weeks ago after playing the game since launch... 😅worth it.

smashing good race mate, was sweating along with you along the way. best of luck for the next race!
Cheers mate
Really enjoyed watching this race and loved the way car just rotated at turn 3 and how it just walks away and just the smoothness of turn 4’s exit
That race was mega intense. Your racecraft always impresses me. You dont put in the time others do, but you make up for it with your natural racing ability!
Quite possibly the best race I've seen in a very long time man, that was 100% worth every second spent watching this!!

Took my first FIA victory at my second attempt at this race this week! Only 90 points (a pretty middling DR B, SR S split) but I was still buzzing.
I absolutely enjoyed the battling in this one. Pure sportsmanship and respect.
what an intense watch, i could feel the emotions you were probably feeling, what a race get in their steve
That was a really nice clean race, was a real pleasure to watch.. Well done m8.. WELL DONE! Awesome video! 😁
I love these videos, the whole race, all the commentary, just overall pure gold content.

Really loving the content recently, making my study breaks a whole lot more fun! Keep it up!
Golly !!! Wonderful drive; best I’ve seen out of you in a while!
That was pretty impressive to watch. It also served to further remind me that there's absolutely no point in me ever getting this game.
Nonsense. You can race bellends like me 👍
Lewis not really happy about the "best fans" in Austria though 😂😂😂 great drive man that was awesome
you guys have a consistency of not doing errors.. its really amazing to look at
13:20 he said: "i would go for a platinum trofe" and now in this year, HE'S DONE IT!
What a win! If that was me I would probably bottle it due to the pressure and it was definitely one of the best races to watch! Keep it up and stay safe out there GT 👍
What a race Super GT lad you had me shaking 😂 Great win!
Steve's voice is far too calm and relaxed, it literally sends me to sleep whenever I watch his videos.
RUclips recommended me a video of you from a year ago. Watching you now, you didn't change.
I've been a subscriber for a while now and i found it so nice seeing you getting better and better 👌
I love watching you race. Amazing and I wish I could drive like that.
Great run. I think it came down to great defence and tire wear. Good work.
I enjoy watching and learning from your videos. I picked Mitsubishi and on this race started 15th finished 5th. Pretty good for my D rated self, hah.
Fantastic commentary!

Just watched this video back (as i do with all of them) crazy here steve on about getting the platinum trophy, then finally doing it two years later
that was a joy to watch
the dude in the mazda was so desperate it cost him the win
Well done mate. An excellent upload. Your commentary is near Martin Tyler level. Loved the unedited cut, cheers.
i think the slip stream qualifiying problem should be an easy fix, either 100% ghost everyone OR just put people alone in qualifying !!

You're absolutely smashing it at the moment! Amazing form!
This is just proper racing. Get in there Lewis! Well done.
You had a good race, I had a good race, my first manufacturer win, in the Ferrari too, just needed to conserve the rears
Brilliant race, fair and clean even when you had a tiny battle with Kreaser. Well done.
"Squeaky bum time now , things are really getting sweaty" best commentary ever 🤣
@supergt this is just beautiful, track artistry in motion. Seamless driving. You really drive like poetry.
Jaysus, never knew the home rig set up was so serious and PRICEY!!
Amazing content Mercedes boys definitely enjoyed that spectacular race!
what an awesome, awesome race Steve! bravo, BRAAAVO!!!
Albon will finally get his revenge on Hamilton with this!
I signed at Honda. The NSX was horrendous at this track
Ended up in last😔
Im with Renault, first race i got 54points, then i got greedy and wanted more, last race of the day i finished last and got 22points, was so pissed.
I started this race in 6th in the Aston Martin. Got sent so then I was in last place. Fought my way back and got 4th. I really enjoyed that one.
Great performance this race! Hope to see more races like this throughout the season.
These are both soothing and amazing to watch. Really wish I had a PS4 right now.
