Yas Marina needed 1 extra lap. At the end of my first race my reaction was: that's it?? Plus the 7-8 minutes countdown for the next race feels like an eternity. Am I the only one?

If you are gonna race it. That wait time is free improvement and I assume it’s gonna be stacked by Thursday, short race time long practice time the times will converge hard.
 
Managed a bit of seal clubbing in A today 😁

Mainly full of mixed C & D drivers so no skill required, but they going for pile up in turn 1 and see who comes out on top!

@benjoi84 awesome time there mate, I still can’t get around the first two turns properly, got knows how tidgney doing that in 4th, understeers like hell! Tried with counter steer and ASM but in the end turned them both off, I reckon this could be a fun combo when you can flow super fast around it.

I did find however, steering SENS at 360 to help with the cornering.

But all in all dire week 🤣

We've a few no? Suzuka older gen Group 2 a while back, lots of races with forced tyre strat like last week for example.

Not sure about that? Wasn’t last week at WG just pit 1/2 way through the race (give or take a few laps)? No concerns about fuel and no chance of rain.

Could be my aging brain, but can’t recall the strat in the Suzuka Gr2 race.

Meanwhile back in flatscreen 😁

I am getting used to the first couple of turns on race A.

Getting closer to the 55s

Racing isn’t too bad either, just had an A rated driver in front of me an a well known tuber A+ driver wipe out just before the line somehow so I managed to nick 3rd 😁

One thing that hasn’t been mentioned- race A is horrific for VR! There’s no interior modelled so it’s like you’re sitting on the roof. After so long driving with the vr cockpit view it’s too much of an adjustment for me to be ar$ed with. YMMV!
And that is exactly why I'm not even trying Daily A this week. I saw the car, knew it was the racing version of the VGT and immediately hit the "Nope" button.

Daily C is a blast, however! Even though I bottled 4th place in my once race last night on the penultimate turn (too much gas in Mac The Knife)

Great effort, I'm just a tenth off that and I don't think I have any more speed to give.

Thanks mate

I think it all starts at that first corner and the whole lap needs to be perfect, in typical Tokyo form 😁 I just can’t work out whether to short shift and where or run through the revs, but I’m enjoying trying 😂
