Who else is experiencing horrific handling during the race? Please tell me I’m not the only one. I qualified 3rd. No handling issues with soft tyres and full tank of fuel. Had to brake and accelerate a bit different but still good handling.
Then the race. Now, I know soft tyres are normally good for 4 laps no matter how hard you push. They violently snapped out of their wear limit after 2 laps. YES!!! 2 laps. The car became an understeering and oversteering nightmare!!
On to hard tyres after all of 2-3 laps. Predictably I had to brake earlier and I was doing so. Every corner just became the worst understeering on entry. I lost so much time and places.
Now finally on to medium for the last 5 laps. 3 laps were marginally better than the hards. Still severe understeer.
Then on the last 2 laps. Understeer, oversteer, am I actually going to stay on the circuit?????
No matter how gently I tried to be with the controls. Same story. Almost undriveable, and I’m deadly serious when I say that.
Other racers towards the back were also having major handling issues in corners. We would catch each other on straights only to play “pretend your car is a snake every corner”
If I am doing something majorly wrong here, ie too hard on brakes then please tell me.
Hours of practice time and for what? Why bother.......
