Hey guys, Mikail here! Hope you all enjoyed the fun battle the four of us (including Lewis hehe) had! Thanks Steve for sharing this and commentating it! 👊🍪
Great race 👍got yourself a sub, hope others follow and I'll check out your channel.. I have resigned myself to VR only now as I enjoy it more, back up to a high A so would love to think I'd see you in a lobby sometime but I think it's very difficult to compete at that level in VR. Every car and view is different.. As Steve said your technique is exceptionally smooth, keep up the good work 👍
Thanks for the video Steve! Can’t deny the slight car advantage here that allowed me to give these legends a race, but even so it was amazing to be part of, let alone win. Lots of respect to Mik and Vale!
I'm a certified pleb for that final pit entry 😅 Nevertheless i appreciated every single bit of the race, props to Mik and Konsta for making it a special one ^^ Big thanks for the coverage on it partner! 👊 (SIGN HERE THE PETITION TO ADD THE OPEL ASTRA V8 COUPE IN GT7 📝)
Awesome job as ever! You guys are all so damn good at this (except for that pit entry haha!!) Totally, that livery looked great. The Opel Astra would be a great addition.
Valerio you're an amazing driver my bro, I always watch your replays to learn where I need to improve. It's something of a comfort to know that everyone can make mistakes, even the elites
@@valeriogallo26 fantastic racing and fantastic to watch,shame about the pit line!! Astra V8 would be great and good luck in GTWS , I will be cheering you on big time 👍👍👍
The fact that real pro drivers are using Steve's clan tag shows what impact he has on the community and a positive one as well. I am so proud I was able to follow this journey from 50k subs. What a story this is!
@@Pontik1 Absolute fair point. Mikail really put the pressure to the max on these corners. All the more impressive that Konsta regained P1 again when he wasn't on the inside line in 5:42 anymore.
It's so impressive watching these top-level drivers. The way they keep their composure for long periods of time is mesmerising, just hitting lap after clean lap.
Just wanted to shout out the way you wove the narrative of the race through out the video. The different perspectives of the drivers combined with the clear commentary to explain what was happening on screen really heightened the intensity and excitement of the race. Great race, great commentary, great editing, great video!
Its crazy the connections you have developed in the racing world. You have inspired many including myself to pursue this path and we cant ever thank you enough!
Very cool video. I raced C.Lopez twice in my GT career. I shared a replay when it was Gr1 Interlagos. The guy won the race from pretty much last. And overtook me like a boss.
This so cool. I truly enjoy watching GT world championship drivers race. They are impressive to watch. Mikail has always been one of my favourites. I love the old battles Fraga and Mikail used to have so intense. Still got the pace and skills. ❤
This is why Sim Racing / Racing in general is so exciting to watch. I almost jumped out of my chair in the last part of the race. Respect to all drivers in this race! And thanks for commentating and sharing this clip Steve.
This is the kind of respectful racing I want to see in C and B lobbies. I know it’s a pipe dream and it’ll never happen, but it was fun to see the style of racing I want to be involved in. All racers here were all about the race itself and not ramming each other to gain a position that means nothing. This is racing. This is Gran Turismo. This is PlayStation.
Thank you Steve for showcasing some of the better drivers in GT7. Proud to say I watched this when it came out on Mikail's channel, absolutely stunning race!
I've been wondering why I can't make better lap times or keep pace with other drivers in my lobbies. This video just shows the kind of consistency and accuracy you need just to keep up. Absolute perfection!!! Well in to Mikal and Konsta.
Mate, as a karting content creator I can imagine the amount of hours you’ve put into making the video. From watching all the replays, to making the cuts and coordinating them, to recording the voice, the thumbnail, etc… Excellent work and great battle between these top of the world guys, I enjoyed it a lot!
GREAT to see the people who are among the best at what they do, work their magic on track. That's what makes those GT World Championship streams so fantastic and NOT to be missed. Well, that, and the amazing commentary from Jimmy and Tom with the occasional SuperGT cameo!
That was an incredible race! The fact that the top 3 pitted and 4th place caught up because he hadn't gone to the pit lane yet is insane. The respect they give each other while fighting through corners, too. I wish I had the patience to become even half as good as these guys.
This is nuts, you guys should be proud not only for your skill but also and especially for keeping your cool and staying fair through such a long and straining battle, this was so much fun to watch
These guys operate like clockwork. It’s therapeutic to watch them race. and super gts commentary was spot on in this one. Great video. Excited for new update content.
That was fantastic! I have only ever had 1 race like that where it was hard racing, but clean between myself and another player. It was Miatas at Tsukuba. We swapped 1-2 so many times! In the end I unfortunately lost in a similar fashion as this race, but it was SUPER close! That race kept me interested...and then the rules changes and the tanking of ratings forcing lower lobby racing where it was near impossible to regain your ratings...I finally had enough and stopped playing.
Now THAT was a race!!!! That finish! If only I’d have these type of respectful drivers in my lobbies. I don’t understand what motivates everyone to drive so dirty now.
Fantastic coverage of a great race! You should know the timing boxes are not in front of the car (of this I'm certain irl and in GT7) but I believe at the wheel (irl this varies from organizations but if I remember correctly from my testing it is located there in GT7). Cheers
It was nice to see a race where the announcer didn't scream once with fake excitement forcing me to turn off volume and miss all the great engine sound. GREAT JOB TO ALL!
Ahh so Hizal is part of TRL crew! I remember them in GT6 dominating back then too. That was a very very clean and professional race, as expected. Loved seeing the lines they took. Must try now lol
Hello SuperGt, you're my inspiration when it comes to simracing, saving up for a cheap sim rig, and I would appreciate some recommendations, hope you read this, and thank you!
I follow Gran Turismo championships for years. It really adds a lot of fun when you know the drivers already. PS: Hizal engineering an overtake while being an engineer in real life was not fluke in your speech Steve
Great video Steve! this is the GT7 equivalent of joining top split in Iracing, and Real life drivers and pro esport guys connect to your lobby you know it will be intense haha
That is why I enjoy GT7. I mean, Icould only dream of having the kind of ability those 3 drivers displayed here. Epic! I ride off road dirt bikes too, and while I am by no means a fast rider, the best bit for me is the close racing with my mates or peers.
now that's how it should be played absolutely fantastic racing in the highest order, thanks for sharing this,the consistency is unbelievable and the smallest tiny little mistake (that I had to rewind to even see it) and you get pounced on without touching! totally ruthless! could write on and on but I won't!! hehe again Steve fantastic in every way, VERY BIG LIKE DEPLOYED 👍👍👍
I ran a 1:30.3 in a race last night here on softs and it's giving me motivation to hop and keep improving seeing how these guys are running similar times. Their consistent pace if ridiculous though
absolutely loved this race. I never knew GT racing between the pros were so close from beginning to end. I was impressed with their car control on every single lap. One thing I didn’t understand was how did the driver of the yellow car kept control of the car with the tires pretty worn out?
