Try letting the revs drop lower before you downshift on the approach to corners - it may be that excessive engine braking when combined with braking and weight transfer is overcoming the grip level of the rear tyres. In real life this can happen in lightweight cars with large engines which produce a lot of engine braking, but I think it is exaggerated in the game. Alternatively try altering the brake bias to less braking on the rear. Alternatively start braking earlier and come off the brakes earlier.
Thanks sickcyl, that's exactly it, i tried keep the revs lower and voila hehe, the problem was gone. I don't know why i wasn't thinking of it, and trying anything else to fix this, too tired preoccupied with real life maybe.
Well also i like to feel the engine and each one's torque and don't like to lessen too much the effects of it.
Also it didn't feel obvious that that's what was happening from the seat of the pants idk.
The f1 does have it's engine braking at almost max at 1 on default setting, and as you said it's a lighter car too. I did up the setting to 6 out of 10 after to see and it's alot less pronounced the turn in on higher revs as should.
I can compensate with lowering the revs but then you have to downshift when you want max acceleration and lose a little time compared to being already at peak rev for performance.
I guess I'll mix a little of both, less engine braking on cars that are way sensitive to this and watch for my revs too.
Thanks again, I'll try it out on other mid engine cars that had that annoying effect like some ferraris maybe.
Edit: i wonder what would be the default engine braking equivalent on a standard street setup on this car, and any other car i guess too. Can it even be changed on a street car like this?
Like i mentionned before, maybe it's the lack of real feel from not being in the car that makes it less obvious on what's happening too. I'm sure in the car in real life you would feel it easily that you need to keep revs lower. Also maybe the sound doesn't make it feel enough that you're pushing on the power band alot when keeping the revs higher.
Edit2: on a different note just tried up the time of day alot for the fun of day night transition etc. The lesser grip when the night comes is really noticeable hehe, with a fast time of day transition it's pretty sudden, you gotta be carefull.
Edit 3: having alot of fun with the f1 gtr, good sound and feel. So immersive when night comes with no hud.
When you put up the hud though it could be nice to have the track temp on it.
Have to say this game is something else.
Makes me wish for a bike sim this detailed.
Edit 4 hehe: like i said i don't like to lessen too much the mechanical effects like engine braking, it's part of the character and challenge too, throttle blipping on downshift and easing up on the brake momentarily to compensate for the engine braking.
But it helps for sure to lessen some seemingly exaggerated or hard to feel effects sometimes.
