Definitely one of the most confusing races I have seen. I get why the 787B is in the back. That car was always slow. But why did the C9 fall behind? Was it's turbo pressure set to 0%? That car normally flies down the straight along with the 962C.
@@f1virtualfilms I gotcha. The stock C9 on AC does have some weird quirks and finicky setups. The custom setups online on racelab are much better and nearer to the actual performance of the beast.
Yo creo que el Nissan r90ck que tenia el turbo fisurado podria ganarle a un f1, gracias a esa fisura el auto rompio un record de vuelta como si fuera un auto de lmp1 (en el circuito con chicanas)
F1 cars should be ahead until the straight, where the Group C cars completely destroy the F1 cars top speed wise, then the F1 car catches up and will probably end up edging the win. In a real 24hr race tho, obviously the endurance cars would win. I think the Group C cars here were tampered or restricted
I guess not, but are the F1 cars respecting their allowance of watts per lap? Because I feel that they are having not only that, but unlimited battery there... No need to recharge... remember that Circuit de la Sarthe is twice as big as Spa. So in they'd need to have HALF of those 160hp to last twice as long. Again, not accounting for their recharges, that would decrease it from 80hp to about half again, 40hp.
The AI of this mod's F1 cars are not designed to race on all tracks 100% correctly. There will be circuits, as is the case at La Sarthe, that don't have a DRS area and the AI feels a bit lost in this aspect and also when to load or use the ERS correctly.
Old Lemans, without today's two chicanes on the Mulsanne straight. F1s aren't cars designed for this circuit and for such a long career. Group C cars are faster on straight because they have much less downforce. How the Porsche 962 runs on a straight, I think the fastest Group C on straight line was the Mercedes C9 (V8 5.0 twin-turbo 850HP) (it reached 407 km/h), and then the Jaguar XJR 9 (V12 7.0 l. 750HP) and finally Porsche 962 (Boxer flat-six, 2.8 l. twin-turbo 680HP), by engine it was like that, and by chronology too, the oldest is the slowest and the last the quickest. Besides Groups C are 40 years older. Obviously in the last part of the circuit with medium radius corners the F1s are always faster, not so on the Mulsanne straight. In any case, the Alpine F1, in theory, shouldn't be ahead of the Mercedes F1 or the Red Bull, even on the straight which it's where Alpine F1 walk away of every cars (I doubt it, in reality it is not as fast as the Red Bull or the Mercedes).
@@f1virtualfilms I mean in the real life...if there are even true details about it.Btw how about in a next race against today's day f1 with the Group C beasts Nissan r92cp and Toyota Minolta 88c-v?👌🔥
Look an F1 car will be faster than most things in a race shorter than 2 hrs, but Sportscars are made for endurance races....... If it was viable to use Formula style cars to do a 24h race then it would have been done so years ago......... I think it would just be too expensive and unreliable to run an Formula car for longer than designated length GP races
