the race. No first turn pile up. AI was excellent.
I read that altering the physics can cause the AI to have problems, but then
I have never done that so I wouldn't know from experience.
You're right, a missed shift or braking 30 meters early can cause an
accident. F1 is all about precision. The cars accelerate and brake as fast
as current technology allows. The travel 2 miles around a road course and
their lap times are somehow within a few tenths every lap. Amazing. If you
make even a slight mistake, you are very likely to cause an accident. If a
simulator is realistic, then the same thing should happen. Fact is, you have
to be goooood.
Practice kiddies. You know, like how you do 8 million laps at Monza, and
then marvel at breaking the 1:28 barrier?
