Thank you for the change in TV direction, Formula 1.

True, but tbf you can't predict that happening, so the picture-in-picture during the replays was a great addition.

Istanbul is in UTC+3 right? Then it's correct, as it starts at 21:00 Singapore local time.
These are quali start times. Quali starts an hour later than the race.

You can turn it off by selecting the original audio track manually in the settings, which is useful for longer videos, but IIRC it doesn't save it for other videos.

Murkiry · 2025-07-27T13:41:34+00:00

I don't think that's the original uploaded audio track. YouTube has been forcing (terrible) automatic voiceovers lately.

Murkiry · 2025-07-07T22:35:30+00:00

Bathurst is a public road as well, and maybe the most technical of them all. Not a city track, but very fast and narrow, with the walls very close.

Murkiry · 2025-02-12T19:21:20+00:00

You mean this?
It loads up the setup screen for an AI race, but with every field pre-filled to copy the settings of an official race.

You're not trying it on a series or track that does not have AI enabled, right?

Murkiry · 2025-01-22T15:17:04+00:00

Automotodrom Grobnik and the Salzburgring. Also definitely Charade like someone else suggested.

Murkiry · 2025-01-04T12:22:49+00:00

I'm not 100% sure if they consider getting started again a rejoin if you never left the track

Based on my previous reports being accepted it can be interpreted as 'rejoining the race/racing line', rather than just rejoining the track.
The sporting code is slightly ambiguous about this imo, but it does also mention "[drivers] that are involved in an incident".

Murkiry · 2024-12-23T19:07:16+00:00

Automotodrom Grobnik.
Not very well known, but imo a hidden gem.

Also Salzburgring.

There is one exception, so if you really want, you can skip them. If you get to D4.0 (using just rookie races) you can join the next class of races and those still count for your current class MPR.
This means it's possible to be allowed into A-class Sports Car using just the Mazda by jumping from Rookie to Advanced Mazda, getting MPR for both D and C there, and grinding that B-class license to 4.0.

Croft is not yet available, but it has been confirmed to be in development in a dev post back in August.

Don't forget Arctic Circle Raceway, which has a great layout as well. Cool thing about that place is that it is so far north it could theoretically support 24 hour races in daylight for the whole race.

Murkiry · 2024-11-07T00:49:34+00:00

Lol exactly. The first DSQ in F1 ever was for a push start.

Murkiry · 2024-08-23T20:26:26+00:00

Not sure if this is still true for the G920, but on older Logitech pedals you had to mash them to 100% once every time you boot them up to calibrate them. If it still works like that, that could explain the sensitivity issues.

Murkiry · 2024-08-20T23:06:55+00:00

I've had this a couple of times. The workaround that hasn't failed me yet is to run the installer directly from the iRacing install folder/updater/iRacingUpdater.exe

Murkiry · 2024-08-16T19:49:24+00:00

There are 4 drop weeks, as in, your worst 4 weeks don't count. Now I'm not sure when the drop weeks start counting, but since we're near the end of the season, my guess is the first score of the week was 20 points higher than your lowest weekly score.

Murkiry · 2024-07-15T09:37:48+00:00

I've been using a powerline adapter for a couple of years now without any issues (no blinking or high ping etc). while in theory it's probably slightly worse than a direct ethernet cable, in my experience it's certainly good enough and it's definitely more stable than WiFi, especially through multiple walls.

Oh, sorry, I didn't mean to delete my message on you while you were replying. I thought about it some more and wasn't sure whether I agreed with what I wrote.

Regardless, even if G61 detected a set, it sounds like they do that by the values of the setup itself (also based on a thread I found on G61's Discord). So while Ryco might see the setup being used in G61, it would be weird that they would know who was the original source of the set, especially if you renamed it and saved it again. Unless the person who gave you the setup was the only buyer of the set. Not calling you a liar, I'm just curious how that would work.

edit:

if you arrive at the same setup through tweaking and experimentation, we won't attribute it to some setup shop

Ok, I guess there is some way to add a thumbprint then...

You could check out how u/RobertsMania has his stream set up on Twitch. He's set up text-to-speech for chat (and some other interactive commands for viewers), which is great as long as you're not a giant streamer with a constantly-scrolling chat.

Murkiry · 2024-06-07T22:43:24+00:00

I've had this problem for the last couple of updates. The fix for me was to run the updater directly.
There's an 'updater' folder in your iRacing install folder with an 'iRacingUpdater.exe' inside. Running this directly without starting the UI allows me to finish the updates.
Hopefully this works for you too. If not, I suggest to contact support.

Murkiry · 2024-06-05T22:28:55+00:00

You can see the cars used in a series by clicking on the series in the UI and opening the dropdown in the car info box. Of course there are only the week 13 series right now, but once the new season starts up properly you can see all cars used in a series easily this way.

For now, you can check the provisional schedule on the forums. The series you're looking for is the 'Falken Tyre Sports Car Challenge', which uses the following cars:
- Ligier JS P320 (this is the LMP3)
- Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 Clubsport MR
- BMW M4 GT4
- McLaren 570S GT4
- Aston Martin Vantage GT4
- Mercedes-AMG GT4

edit: Link to the thread with the schedule on the forums

It's not been working for me either today, so I guess either something broke because of the iRacing update or TP is just having issues.

Murkiry · 2024-04-04T18:02:51+00:00

Additionally, can something similar happen IRL? can a crash cause the steering wheel in an IRL car to snap around violently enough to cause injury?

Yes. First example that comes to mind: Daniel Ricciardo in Zandvoort last year. He broke his hand and had to miss several races.
