If anyone is too late on the breaks just don't hold the wheel straight until you get to the scene of the accident. Steer off the track or to the other side if safe to do so. Like what Kimi did at Inter Largos 2012

Youtube the start of the Brazil GP 2012. He out breaks himself into the third corner and bails off track to avoid hitting Vettel. If you do this you help yourself and the guy in front of you too.

I'll be on soon if anyone wants to practice running into the back of me.
 
And braking early is a terrible idea, LAST OF THE LATE BRAKERS!!
 
Then again Monza has those solid brake marker boards and barriers on the inside.

So that explains why you're the only LMP driver to have issues with GTE cars, and other crashing too. :P

How much wing have you taken off it?

Not much mate, taking wing off our car doesn't work, its still not great on the straights and then its really unstable under braking and into the corners, we have to run a high downforce configuration, at least now i can qualify it near the front and try get away from people.
 
We haven't taken all of the wing off, just got a little bit left but Le Mans is where I'll take the wing off.

Well then, we'll both have fun staring at the back of a Bentley or an Audi for long periods of times.
 
Oh and don't forget when breaking for the first turn. "The further on the edge; The hotter the intensity"
 
**** yeah! I have it as my alarm call.

I'm listening to it right now before going on track.

Don't forget kids. Always clean out you "Systems cashe" in options It helps.

I think those are no longer present in GT6? Certainly you can knock over the Lesmo ones now
 
I don't know, can't remember if they do.

But I use the marker boards as a reference for T1 don't want them knocked over if they aren't solid.

They're not solid as I usually prove in practise by knocking them over and making everyone have a miserable time in to turn one. At least anyone who've practised with me should be used to it by now. :)

Niko the Super Villain is born!
 
Maybe let's call " green " after turn 1? Would be easier and safer ?
 
Nah I think the first turn danger is a part of being at Monza. We should all be able to handle it, it's not like this is the first race of the season.

edit: But I wouldn't recommend trying to go in three wide, that's gonna end in tears.

That sounds awful, you better hope I don't get pole or I'll be gunning it as early as the exit of Parabolica.
 
Actually, if I did that I would probably be last of the LMP's by turn 1 given how slow the C60 is
 
I'm pretty sure you'l have to lead everyone on to the straight before you can go, but I'm sure it would make it interesting with all cars suddenly putting on the power in the middle of the curve. :)
 
Can't the GTE field drop back slightly before green? Would separate classes better for turn 1

The distance of the run to T1, the LMP's will be gone before the GTE cars get there :lol:

What if there is a big LMP crash? The GTE field will be safer if they were just a further back.
 
If there is a LMP crash in turn one, we expect them to stay out of the way until we're through, don't want any lmps reversing in to the race line when we come. But everyone knows this and I think this will go much smoother than anyone expect. In practise we only had problem when the LMPs started behind some of the GTEs and that shouldn't happen in the race.

What speed you managing by the time you hit the brakes for T1? Also, have you found a way to make the pesco actually slow down? I just done some running in it, managed some low 31's, but it just wouldn't slow down!
 
Well, lets pit it like this, Driving standards in this series is great, on the most part, also. I think more than half the field have now commented on the subject of being careful in T1, so if anybody isn't careful, I will be wondering why :lol:

Have faith, it will be fine into T1 and an epic race after.
