I take on Charles Leclerc on a Monaco qualifying lap on the £2.5 MILLION rig ‪@dynisma9516‬ - I've never raced at Monaco... so this was quite a journey of discovery. The full motion immersion rig pulled no punches.. What are my chances of beating him on his home track... er?
This is the exact setup the Ferrari F1 team uses for practicing, making it very interesting to see how close to Charles I can get on the virtual track.
I hope you enjoy this video as I continue my journey getting to grips with the crazy world of sim racing. Please let me know what you'd like to see next on this channel in the comments...

So funny. The guy looked so meek afterwards, poor bastard, I was expecting a very English apology at the end from Ben but still, probably worth it for that time.

@thebolsta Месяц назад

@@DrBoobY2K He's probably been in that situation so many times that he understands the level of focus required to drive on the limit, and that in the final sector of a lap, the nerves are getting more and more intense. Ben will have known how good of a lap he was on, and was bricking himself at the thought of messing it up.

For those with motion rigs, note the subtle movements and not the jerky roller coaster motion.

@BenCollinsGaming 29 дней назад

yep the bumps were real and the yaw was unique to that system - the speed of the feedback ./ movement is what really sets it apart as well

@TC2290-wh5cb 19 дней назад

It's impossible to simulate the g-forces of an F1 car, you're not getting 5Gs out of a sim rig and this rig doesn't try to, so if it's just a bit of roll, pitch and yaw it helps a lot..

Professional. I reckon it costs a lot of money to use that rig with them so there's no time to waste. Just like in an F1 team, everyone is 100% focused on the the effort. If Ben wasn't doing this a feature for YT, and was instead tuning the setup on his race car for an imminent event, he would be as laser focused as that engineer.

@sp33dou 27 дней назад

So they are using same or similar garbage hard surface tire model as iracing. Quite insane that a 2,5 $ costing Assetto Corsa has better tire model at least in some aspects. I wish there was more actual inhouse effort put in to this, as most sim makers seem to be just buying the same physics engine and tire model.

Great content but I wish you would have maintained seriousness throughout the whole video like you did at the start and I say this because I’m tired of arguing about how sim racing is not me just playing video games.

5:19 "You're either on the track or you're off" He should've put a clip of Rosberg instead, in 2014 with his "accidental" lockup that ended the qualifying session and got him a pole position at Monaco. "Woops-a-daisy, I locked up and turned left instead of right to park up in a very conveniently placed runoff area and at a very convenient time..sorry guys!" 🤔🙄👎
