@Mello_What Love the choice of GTD cars and liveries, simply one of the most beautiful set of cars in motorsport.

4 hours of Road Atlanta with 4x or 5x time multiplier will be perfect like the real Petit Le Mans, gonna have to make my own grid like that thank you. 👍🏻

After 21,000km+ raced in the Ferrari VGT, time to say goodbye when the Ferrari 499P comes in the next update.

[Mello what?! 😒 @Mello_What]

Bye bye!! 👋👋

@Mello_What Ah yeah the rubber banding is only felt in P1 with a gap in Sophy thats true, it never goes away even in weak boost.

So by doing the multiclass race you’ll never be P1 and then the rubberband will never happen. 😅

I’ll add that to the list and try a multiclass race as well.

[estong @johnnyAnte]

@Mello_What Thats a great idea, and yeah the rubber banding is terrible.

There is no rubber banding against Sophy AI though, and put the boost in weak. As much as possible I race against Sophy AI and it makes the racing so much better. I hope PD makes more tracks and cars Sophy compatible.

@Mello_What Had my own custom race series with it and other Gr.1 cars. Each race was mini endurance 2-4 hours long. I had to tweak every car so they’d all be balanced it was like a custom BoP. The fuel consumption of the Ferrari VGT is uncompetitive, but other than that it’s been very fun.

[estong @johnnyAnte]

@mituk_tomy_sub Yes, I have around 21,000km on it too.

RACE PACE! #AustralianGP #F1

Mercedes built a rocketship, yet Ferrari wasn't far behind!

Excellent comeback by VER

Audi and Haas built cars which can lead the midfield this year, yet are ONE SECOND slower than the worst top-car (McL)

Alpine struggled, yet was quicker than Williams. Cadillac is slowest by far! (But, unlike Aston, can finish races)

Pace per team:
1)Merc (ANT)
2)Ferrari (HAM) +0.13s/lap
3)RBR (VER) +0.53
4)McL (NOR) +0.56
5)Audi (BOR) +1.53
6)Haas (BEA) +1.68
7)RBs (LIN) +1.84
8)Alpine (GAS) +2.12
9)Williams (ALB) +2.36
10)Cadillac (PER) +4.31 (!!)
11)Aston (?)

Seb was a monster that season, easily the best driver that year. Relentless.

I remember being an intern at a motorsport mag and our seniors being excited about finally someone coming up with a car that could go h2h with the Mercs.

SF70H was faster and more consistent in race trim during the first half, often outpacing Mercs on tire management and downforce. but Merc peaked higher in quali with engine modes and pulled ahead later via development.

that year was also the first time it dawned on us what Ferrari was/is.

Mercs nailed operations with obsessive attention to detail…the monsters there were Vowels, Wolff, Meadows, Thomas and Batch. dominating strategy, reliability, development and upgrades..

Merc package was Goliath: a great driver who even if made mistakes could breath easy because of a team that had superior execution … it kept them unbeaten operationally.

Ferrari botched pits, no team orders, and late-season development fail, team ops/strat failures were massive ..could’ve won easily with better heads..

[Ferrari Focus @Scuderiascoop]

No driver embodied the spirit of Ferrari more fittingly, or deserved its ultimate crown more wholly, than Seb. He didn't just drive for the team, he lived it.

A tifoso at heart, he immersed himself in the language, the history, and the very soul of Maranello. His quest for the title was never just about winning; it was about fulfilling a shared destiny.

"Dad, how good was 2017 Sebastian Vettel?"

[Fifth Gear @NotFifthGear]

I miss Sebastian Vettel

[estong @johnnyAnte]

@the_zb_ If you’re giving Bahrain to Charles, then give Vettel these:

Singapore was a well done undercut.
Canada he got robbed by FIA.
Germany engine issue in Quali started P20.
Austria engine issue in Q3.
Russia Mechanical dnf and was purposefully undercutted and not favored by strategy

[Charles Leclerc @Charles_Leclerc]

A very difficult weekend in São Paulo. Disappointing to come back home with nearly no points at all for the team in what is a critical moment of the season to fight for the 2nd place in the constructors championship. It’s uphill from now and it’s clear that only unity can help us turn that situation around in the last 3 races.
We’ll give it all, as always ❤️

[Lewis Hamilton @LewisHamilton]

I back my team. I back myself. I will not give up. Not now, not then, not ever. Thank you, Brazil, always 🇧🇷

[estong @johnnyAnte]

Elkann is the worst thing that happened to Ferrari. Forza Lewis and Charles, Forza Ferrari sempre

[Lewis Hamilton @LewisHamilton]

I back my team. I back myself. I will not give up. Not now, not then, not ever. Thank you, Brazil, always 🇧🇷

[saad @sebvetyoubeauty]

crazy how sebastian vettel was in the 2nd in the drivers championship in 2015 even as they went the US GP against those rocketship mercs

Vettel 2015 is a very underrated season by a driver

[𝙠 ⭐️ @lecvsn]

People on this app have ran Vettel's PR into the ground, how do you see this and say, "worst champion ever, newey merchant"

It's a stupid argument, he clutched up twice when it mattered in 2010 as well as 2012
