which track and when , I just said where else in F1 have you seen this kind of weather? all f1 tracks are 3-7 km and im sorry this is unlikely elsewhere , its only in spa that its likely.

You kidding me? you are aware of how clouds and rain moves aren't you? Of course it happens to many tracks, it's just not as noticeable.

I am aware and its unlikely in other f1 tracks , wether its as noticeable or not as noticeable , spa is still different from any other tracks.


This thread is not saying put this 1st rather than having all tracks have weather 1st , this is a thread not a this 1st.
 
I was and you were going backwards when the leader had to go.

Why are you being so immature because you can be in forums but in reality someone immature won't even make it to anything.
Ok... Whatever you say kid, guess my personal life didn't go anywhere then. Looking arround and yeah you are a genious!
You know now I remember why the pole sitter had to go, because we haulted the damn race for an hour to let you qualify, and then you started crying because you couldn't have pole and telling everyone how you could do 1:09s and yet couldn't break the 12s when you had the chance... And even then the guys where nice enough to let you start on the front row!

:dunce: you should accept my friends request

I just remembered my friend who had tickets before , you must know somebody who can duplicate the tickets or check trade for tickets.

Why don't you just enter the FMSC and see if your so great?
Even better, if you are so great why not register in WSGT and GTPFIA? You can easily win those series and take home 2 new simulators!

^ Commenter of the week!

From what I know it is pretty hard to try put a mini-geosystem in a game, it's alot of processing power which is probably better off being used on another part of the game.

yes you ended settling in gt5.

I wasn't pole when the race started and the leader (the host) had to go because I was already 1st and pulling away. Actually I remember now , you were the HRT car blocking me on qualifying but anyway I was late for qualifying , haha its funny when a HRT car wants to keep up with the ferrari car , ends up going backwards instead because he is pissed off why he is 5 seconds slower per lap with the same car but f2007 is even faster and easier , oh and that's why I call you arcade HRT car.

you were obviously 1 of those at the back of the grid that has no chance even if I crashed per lap and starts going backwards when the host had to go. I was 1st and pulling away before the host had to go , you know that and you can't accept the reality.

that's the gap between reventon and jav
the only difference is jav has an arcade quicker f2007 car and reventon has the light years harder f10 car ^^

Wow! You really are serious, funny how your version and recollection of events changes with every post. Why not step up and run a league then? Sign up for any of the real competitive leagues in this site. Put up or shut up, it's that easy kid.
 
If there were a million things to update, this would not be on the list.

What a stupid request, do we actually need this?

Can you even make a comment that doesn't vilify someone?

I don't think I've ever seen this guy make a comment that hasn't vilified The OP or someone else in the thread. This guy must absolutely hate life.

I don't understand your 1st sentence but there are no leagues for f1 in gt5.
 
From my years of watching motor racing both in person and on television, it is common for weather not to fully take over a track. Spa is of course talked about the most as the weather is very changeable there so it highlights the effect and creates more famous stories, the Nurburgring is in the exact same region so it does the same thing. Elevation of course makes a difference, Bathurst in Australia sees it were the top section is wet while the bottom of the mountain is dry, very common... I'm surprised that topic needed to get drawn out so long.

Back on topic though, I agree it'd be cool to have it in GT5 but it probably requires a fair bit of power to run a weather model that can work geographically that way. Having weather full stop on most tracks would be a better choice for me in the short term.
 
I don't think any other track in the world does this , its only spa that's known to do this.

F1 2011 won an award because they have the drying line which is stupid anyway because the physics are the same everywhere.

Bathurst has had it, dry in one section, wet another. I've also just been tree'd :banghead:
 
Just to come back to the main topic....

Yes a cloud has a limit everywhere in the world, yes it might happen elsewhere, but meteorology is not just a matter of clouds limit.

Clouds were not created once upon a time, and then travel the world following the winds.

The thing is spa is build in the Belgian Fenns (??... fagnes in French)
This is the only circuit I know that is build in a region with these characteristics : woods surrendering the circuit, some zone surrending the circuit are very humid -> marsh. The nurb is not far away but it s just woods I think.

The circuit is also not at sea level. It s not very high either (400m) but it does also make a difference.

So, very humid in some zone, not so humid in others make it a circuit with higher probability then others.

Don t tell me Miami is the same because Miami is a tropical weather where spa is "temperated" and there s no direct influence of the see (winds, etc)

An other example of the particularity of spa, is on the length, there are circuits longer than spa which are not supposed to be wet in some area, while others remain dry.

For exemple, le mans. A team director had a cousin living in the suburb area of le mans where he knew that it was the first zone where rain would appear if it starts raining. So, during the race, the cousin was in his backyard with his phone waiting for drops. When he felt one, this team was the first one to pit and not loose time because when the rain comes, it comes fast and it rains everywhere on the circuit (generally).

No, I give my opinion.

For me this is a very stupid request.
