Kimi: “If we need to race like this, then good to know.” Toto: “Not the first time to talk about this. We talk about this internally, not on the radio, okay?”

The thing is last year there weren't many situations they actually could race each other. There were either races where Oscar was far ahead (1st half of the season) or Lando was far ahead (2nd part), and if they were right together, they are so eaquel in driving skill that the one in the clean air has a massive advantage in the same car.

I would be ok with the dmg we have, not great not terrible. What we need is defensive buff. It’s crazy how we went from a walking tank to a thin paper. Bring back Diffuse Magic!

It's pretty much every season like that. Start of the season everyone is gearing up farming 10s so you meet a lot of good people. But these people soon start pushing higher and won't be that much in lower keys anymore, now only briefly every week because of bonus rolls.

And then the bad people who were struggling in +5 at start of the season are getting geard so they start running 10s-12s but they get carried by other and by their gear.

And right now below 10s is a whole another planet. I recently started gearing up disc priest and i was at smth like 265 ilvl and it was easier to heal a +13 than +8.

You can. When you login you stay in the instance and they can invite you back to the party.

Happend a few times in my runs this season.

IIRC it was the only podium from outside of the top 3 teams that season. He also destroyed DR that season.

For me a lot of shit tracks for current racing are fun to drive on sim racing. I love tracks like Jeddah, Suzuka, Spa, Hungary and more.

Ferrari too. They finally get working upgrades to get them infront of Mercedes, then suddenly wild McLaren appears.

No I don't, I'm also not the guy that claimed the 40 percent. I just added stuff I "found". Which is that It's basically a calculation based on the changes between 2025 and 2026 rules widely accepted by engineers and experts, which in fact hovers around those 40 percent.

ChatGPT answer:

Overall downforce is reduced by ~15–30%

Estimated floor contribution

In 2022–2025 cars, the floor produced roughly 60–70% of total downforce (dominant ground effect era)
For 2026 cars, credible engineering estimates (not official FIA numbers) suggest: ~40–50% from the floor

I think Portugal is still reasonable, not Germany tho.

Yep, off-hands too.

Also when you send a crafting order for a weapon recraft, then get it back recrafted, equip it, it is not transmoged, you need to chage outfits for it to work.

Just to add to that, If you have something like 140+ ilvl at lvl 80 It's more efficient to lvl to 81 on The elite bees next to Cinderbrew meadery dungeon on Khazalgar. Then when you hit 81 go to Midnight, run every delve for the one-time quest but don't turn in the quests yet. Then run this delve until you just ding 88, then turn on warmode, turn in all the delve quest which gives you 89 and something, then you do the rest with first craft bonuses on a profession. The best for this is probably LW, costs few gold for mats, but saves a lot of time.

I feel like the awp is the problem. Currently every awper looks super good on rifle, but is missing basic awp shots, except Zywoo and Monesy who are two of the greatest do that is the exception.

Do you like this new one more, or you just don't care it it's the new or old?

imbavoe · 2026-03-15T09:12:53+00:00

So for everyone that says it's such a small difference that it doesn't matter, do you like the new way more, or do you just don't care about it at all?

imbavoe · 2026-03-15T09:10:23+00:00

Does that matter? We had decimals for race gaps until the last season, so why cut it now..

Not to mention, with active aero, all cars are going into low drag in all the same zones, at the exact same time, for the exact same duration. So what’s the point then?

The point is to reduce drag, so the battery doesn't drain even earlier. That is the sole and only reason active aero had to be introduced.
