Race A needed better tyres imo. The CSs are all over the place. Managed one win today and that might be it for the week.
Well, which type of tires do you like to use in the daily races? Mine are hard because they offer more grip for staying on the road. Medium are fine too, I suppose.
 
Took one look at a track time for race A, realised it was the reverse maggiore variation and decided to stick with the glen this week, laid down a 1.47.8xx

I think it was back in April this same combo, but on Medium, managed a 1.45.5xx that week,

Happy to be back racing!
 
I muss say, I spent August with my mouth watering till the weekends thanks to PD's improvements in settings the races. This week is the same, looking forward to see if I could stay near the 1% delay from WL at Glen. On medium tyres it was + 1.23% this spring.
@NevilleNobody It's not just at Bus stop that "you do the time" (even if there I'm above average and get always a 2-3 tenths buffer against followers). Turn 1 and last are vital + the rigth hairpin up hill before the back straight. There's a lot of time to gain or lose in those three corners.

I think the first and last corners are my worst, my optimum is currently around 1:46.4xx using the meta BMW - I tried the trusty 458 but the M6 is just easier to drive round there, particularly since the physics update. Or maybe it's because I'm getting more familiar with it 🤔 458 may still be ok in a race (haven't raced yet this week)

I did some laps of Suzuka and I'm quite slow - I much preferred the 'old' Gr2 handling. Will persevere though and try to improve...
