At least the choice is only for the off season.

Has that been confirmed? Been trying to find out what they mean by ID_2019. Also if a Manu has 2 cars for Gr3, do you have to pick one and stick or can it be per race?
 
It's now confirmed in-game that the "ID 2019" refers only to the 2019 Exhibition series and is not applicable to any other 2019 series . The reference to ID 2019 is an in-game display issue and will be corrected with the next update.

Great, found it! :) I'm happy about this having ignored the test seasons and ending up in a 458 hovercraft in some races.
 
I have to agree with the commentators . When Being Too Passionate is a BAD Thing! Nico and IOF have payed a very high price . Bad for GT Sport , very bad for all Brasilian players , even more when this hapen in a TOP 24 final event. It happen to me some very few times because of lack of skills , this is unacceptable from very skilled top drivers like this.




That was some clean driving!
 
God! How bad just is the RS 01 GT 3. Just cannot take turn 2 at all without spinning out. Thought at first it was me being a numpty and clipping kerb so took it wider and it still flips around unless you go through corner at 20mph. Checked tc as I had set it at 0 on another car for oval event but it was at my usual level 2. Thank heavens this is just test season. Hopefully the gr4 Renault is better.
 
I think mediums being allowed stealth buffs the 650S GT3 considerably, it always had an issue with mechanical grip and now its on Mediums i can see a 1:27 in it if I hook the lap up. Genuinely think it has front runner pace now.
 
After some thinking I decided.............that it's time for some rest :indiff: After so many FIA races I feel like Green day during their notorious touring schedule :ouch: So no Post-season for me :rolleyes: I hope to come back for 2019 season :)
 
First FIA race since season 1.

Messed up qualifying and started behind @PirovacBoy in P16. Had an amazing start and made up 4 places. Sorry for the slight contact.

Got taken out in T1. Damage at the front. Damage at the back. Race over. Maybe I did break a bit early I don't know...



Went to the pits. I was able to go the pace of the leader in laps 2-8. I then pitted again to put on some mediums with the aim of going for the fastest lap. Spun out a few more times, had engine damage and couldn't even finish the race in the time limit. I guess you could say I did an @Alpha Cipher:D
 
Does anybody know if CSA is allowed again this season?
Go-kart + G29 say thank you , i will use it in this case, for the rest it's totally needless and it don't bring a better performance. If who have problems with regularity due to lack of skills to control their car , it's ok for me. It's not faster and perhaps safer for other people around those drivers.
 
Only took rear wing aero damage on T1 but that was enough to lose the fight for any respectable position. 2 seconds or more time lost on each lap.

Sucks because someone hitting rear is something you can't do anything about.
 
@05XR8 - You had a nice lead till you ended in the gravel trap, the Vette in second was trying it's best to stay with you and I was trying my best to keep-up with the two of you.
* first time I managed to stay with the leaders using the G29 set-up.
I'm on DS4. I was shocked to do a 1:31.661 during qualy. Figured I'd be around 10th-13th.

Yeah, the Vette was trying to squeeze on my right after I went too hot at T1. It backed off, but after if nudged my right rear and I moved over. I picked that line the whole race.

Which car were you?
 
How common has the Mr Bean livery been in the Mini race tonight?
Two in my race, me and another guy :cheers:

Nations went better than expected, I used my own tune which was quite soft on the tyre, couple of bumps from behind but no major banging for all in all a good race, there was three of us at one point bumper to bumper for whole lap.

Manu, got spun out at T1 through no fault of my own, was dead last and 6 seconds behind 18th, drove hard and finished P10 thanks to a couple of DNF's and good pace from testing, had I not got spun I could have been top 5! for those in a later slot reading this, I recommend doing a Hard stint for 8 or 9 laps then put on the mediums and let rip. A 0 stop is possible but leaves you vulnerable at the end.
 
Was not looking forward to the manufacture’s race this evening, dreading it after @Alpha Cipher experience with the lambo.

Had fully excepted walking away with either 0-200 points, at least I thought as long as I can keep it inside of the white lines and going forwards I can probably avoid finishing last.

So qually, yea went really well, not at all, held up on my first flyer, toasted the tyres at turn 3 managed to qualify 14th, damage control begins from here I can score 400 as long as I don’t get overtaken.

And then this happened:

(Only one lap not a chore to watch I promise ;))



Super happy Lambo Driver thats where I finished 7th place 1099pts.
 
congrats mate, was in the same race, minding my own business on the outside of T1 hahaha
(Was waiting for somine to reply pesky double posting)

After posting the vid I read your post above, so watched it again looking for your PSN, so unlucky to be collected like that. I was fortunate to be inside of it all.

Watching the first part and crap I didn't leave enough space for you on T3 L1 :( sorry mate. I thought I left enough room :(

Good race though, I remember having short skirmishes with you here and there throughout the race :cheers:

It was fine, I didn't expect you to turn left a bit although I did have more room to my left a little. Then you ran a little deep. Minor stuff really, was good to race against you! :cheers:
 
So x13 tyre wear. Absolutely completely useless :lol:

Medium tyres are just pointless for the race when it's that high. All that multiplier does is make the MR cars even less competitive in race trim. Almost getting to Gr4 levels of inbalance on the tyre wear.

Your start was extraordinarily. The rest, well let’s just move on...:lol:
