Good to see F3 racing back on the channel, probably my favourite series of yours to watch. And this video is the perfect reason why… fast, competitive and, at times, hair-raising!
Hi Ben, Pete here 😊 That was such a fun race. As always, was a pleasure racing with you mate. Oh, and thanks for the super nice comments. Much appreciated. You sir, are a legend 💪
Ah Pete mate! I was hoping you’d find the video! I was also hoping to keep you behind me 😂😂 Great to see you on track again - hopefully see you on there next week too!
@@Ben_LaBroca :) You were doing a good job of keeping me behind mate. Such a shame when you went off. Looking forward to next time mate....maybe on a track I know a bit better :P hahahahaha
Yeah I was worried at the time I’d bullied him into the gravel but I think he just tried to keep his foot in while giving me space. Thanks for watching and glad you enjoyed it buddy!
Great race Ben! That kink before the corkscrew is such a delicate part of this track! You negotiated super well in early laps and did a great push at the end. Really enjoyed this mate!
Cheers Lorenzo! The F3 cars are so enjoyable to try and guide through Laguna on the limit. Got to push but be super precise…which I wasn’t a couple of times 😂
Ha yeah it reminds me of how F1 used to be where the top three teams were well clear, and the rest could only compete for like 7th position. Only this is entirely based on skill and not unequal car performance 😂😂😂
Ah thanks buddy - yeah it’s a brilliant car! I’m enjoying the super formula lights just now, but the F3 is a bit more challenging and probably more fun to drive as a result!
Thanks Jim! It’s a tricky one as be too passive and you get mugged right left and centre!! Enjoyable race though, and despite the various mistakes, a pretty clean one too
@@Ben_LaBroca it’s such a hard call to make at the start of a race, hold position and defend (and risk being punted) or be a bit pragmatic and let the guy past (as those type of drivers inevitably ‘bin it’ in a corner or two). I think you made some good calls! See you out there 👍🏻
Hi Ben, great video once again! Can you move the slowdown bar a bit lower? At the moment your delta overlay is covering it (ALT+K in sim lets you do it)
Beware that if you occasionally happened to get in top split, and usually you don't, then it means that this top split is actually slower then it usually is. So the question from title is not necessarily answered.
I really enjoy your videos, and wow what a race!
Ah thank you buddy - really appreciate the kind words!

If only I had any hair to be raised!! Thanks buddy - it’s my favourite series to race in too for sure, very enjoyable!
Probably some of the best produced iRacing videos this was really enjoyable to watch
Ah thank you Gavin - that’s so good of you to say. Glad you enjoy them!

Currently hovering around 4k. Feels like I lost my touch, and all of the 2ks such as yourself keep whoopin my ass every race 😂.
Haha it’s definitely competitive!!
The livery on Shimakuras car is sick!!
Very exciting race, heartbreak for Shimakura but a really nice move from you there to respond to his from just a couple laps earlier.
Yeah I was worried at the time I’d bullied him into the gravel but I think he just tried to keep his foot in while giving me space.
Thanks for watching and glad you enjoyed it buddy!

Nice save on lap 2 Ben! Great top 10 finish and great commentary and video editing as usual. Keep them coming buddy,
Ah thanks Bill - very good of you to say! Glad you enjoyed it!
Really really cool and exciting format mate, keep it up!
Thank you Christian buddy - really appreciate that
Well done Ben. Keep up the great work.
Ah thanks mate - appreciate the support!!
Exciting race! And that last lap move was great!
Ah thank you buddy - really pleased you enjoyed it!
Very nice race and exciting last lap! Awesome editing and commentary ad usual!
Ah thank you buddy - glad you enjoyed it!
What a last lap! Awesome race once again Ben!
Thanks man!! Really enjoyable one this!
Awesome commentating and video format !!
Ah thanks Albert - glad you enjoyed it!
You gotta try the 488 at silver stone this week, feels like the car just slides through every corner it’s insane
Haha I tried this and absolutely sucked at it 😂😂
Wow, great race. To finish in that position would feel like a win to me being in a top split.
Ha yeah it reminds me of how F1 used to be where the top three teams were well clear, and the rest could only compete for like 7th position. Only this is entirely based on skill and not unequal car performance 😂😂😂
Nice overtake on the final lap. Great race to watch.
Cheers man - a really fun combo to race!
Great racing mate. And very good editing as well.
Ah thank you man - v much appreciate that!
Great race to watch. Just bought this car. Lots of fun.
Ah thanks buddy - yeah it’s a brilliant car! I’m enjoying the super formula lights just now, but the F3 is a bit more challenging and probably more fun to drive as a result!
Love the videos. Any way we could get a setting and add ons breakdown video. Display looks amazing.
Nice race Ben. Hope to see you online one of these days.
Ah thanks Ale - and definitely buddy, I’ll look out for you on the grid!
Love F3, great racing. 😎👌
It’s such a great car to drive and race! Thanks for the support buddy!
@Ben_LaBroca I hear they maybe updating the model. Fingers crossed 🤞. Be great to catch you in a race sometime.
Go on lad
🙌 thanks for all the support mate!
Great race Ben 👍
Thanks Si - glad you enjoyed it! It was really fun to race and pull the edit together 👍
Smart thinking in the early laps!
Thanks Jim! It’s a tricky one as be too passive and you get mugged right left and centre!! Enjoyable race though, and despite the various mistakes, a pretty clean one too

Top work mate. Wonder if that was THE Adam Nagy in the race
Hi Ben, great video once again! Can you move the slowdown bar a bit lower? At the moment your delta overlay is covering it (ALT+K in sim lets you do it)
Ah thanks buddy and yes this is on my to do list that I never get around to doing! Same with the start lights too!! 😅
@@Ben_LaBroca don't stress it! Quality is already very high!
Dude you would be an amazing race commentator
Ah mate that’s so good of you to say - glad you enjoy the videos 👍
Commentary better then a race.
Ah thank you man
@@Ben_LaBroca I am not quick enough to compete, but you are sounds like proper commentator.
@@Qhashbba ha I’m not too sure about that - it’s easier commentating when you’ve edited the video and know what is going to happen! 😅😅
@@Ben_LaBroca trust me, I am noobie.
car go nyoom
😂😂 and sometimes screech…smash!
