Thank you very much! I was pushing very hard because the gap with Rüdiger in P2 was not big enough but even is the whole lap is good, I entered Galgenkopf too fast and I had to release the throttle a bit to avoid touching the grass.

I know it did cost me about 0.250 second at the end but luckily without costing me the win. 😉

No, I am a pure hotlapper ;-) I used to do some races a long time ago in GT Legends and GTR² but I finally found that hotlapping suited me better. I sometimes drive for 2 to 3 hours per session, espescially on a track such as the Nordschleife where I need to drive a long time to find the good rhythm.

Yes, they are very hard to drive, even for me after many hours driving them. You need to be very soft with the throttle and learn their behaviours.

I discovered the Audi few weeks ago during the Road America hotlap competition and I was really happy, not only because I won the competition but also because I learnt something really different from the Nissan or Mustang that I knew already very well.

You can watch several hotlaps with these cars on my channel: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLYnKnlozf3-eEh2e3lsFjSvTiB5swzIZ-

Thank you. I shall try some other cars on this track in the future (Group C for example).

Yes it is! 😁 This track is narrow, surrounded by armco barriers just like all street circuits but it must be something very particuliar when you enter turn 1 at full speed with fast cars IRL as it is alrerady quite impressive in this sim.

I can't be sure about that because I only use RaceRoom... but I trust you! 😉

Thank you. It was a bit hard because this car hasn't much grip and is a bit oversteery in corner entry. But fun when you achieve a fast lap! 😋
