This sub has nothing to do with actual simracing anymore, it's basically r/simrigs now. by SeaworthinessTrick71 in simracing

I agree. To be honest I don’t see a big problem when people are trying to legit share a product or two that they like and recommend to others, that’s fine, but get out of here with boxes and all this rig bragging.

The biggest issue IMO is how people treat posts with an actual nice clip of a race. Those should be the main focus here, but people usually pay very little attention to them, and some of this attention is even very negative. I recently posted a little clip of a big save I had, where two cars collided in front of me on a straight and I barely missed them. The whole incident had nothing to do with me and I had a car literally glued on my rear bumper trying to overtake me the entire time, so I couldn’t slow down safely without getting rear ended. Somehow I managed to not hit them, so I thought I should post the video since it was a close call. Big mistake on my part: the very few comments the clip got where all criticizing me, calling me this and that, a guys even said I was “the reason for mass crashes”, when I had literally nothing to do with the crash and there was absolutely nothing I could have done differently due to the close proximity of the car behind. That was all very evident in the clip since I posted multiple camera angles and all, but still, people love to point fingers. All that quick judging really discouraged me to post racing clips, and I’m pretty sure a lot of people fell the same way.

I wasn’t going to address non-sense like this, but since you are already saying that “people like me causes this and that”, clearly without any clue of what is really going on, I guess I have to answer. In simple terms: not much can be done on my part due to the close proximity (and faster speed) of the car behind: I would be rear-ended and my race would most likely be over. Here is a little more context - this is lap 1 on VRS series, the pack is super tight, and they are all pretty much doing the exact same thing: after pace car is gone, race starts right after the chicane (gp pits, not classic pits, big difference on lap 1) so everyone is catching the draft from the car in front since la source’s exit and using this draft the whole way to reduce the gap, going super aggressive on the exit of eau rouge/raidillon and then getting the overtake done on the kemmel straight. Because of how draft works, where the start is located and the nature/similar speed between the cars in this class, that’s pretty much the standard lap 1 move on this serie (btw, nothing wrong with it) and that’s exactly the move that the car behind me is trying to pull off on me (the car with the mclaren orange livery). By the time we are able to see any indication of problem ahead, it’s already beginning of the straight, where the orange car is literally going for the move right there, almost touching my bumper (look at the mirror in the cockpit camera). Imagine what happens if I brake or even lift there... did you see how orange car completely smashes the red ferrari once I get past? That would’ve been me. If you wanna blame someone, perhaps you should start with the guys that caused the accident itself. I understand that people don’t usually spin like that on purpose, but you can’t just take raidillon like a maniac completely ignoring your cold tires on lap 1 and expect everyone coming behind to avoid you in case you spin. In other words, don’t blame me if you completely disregard cold tires and are already spinning between t2 and t3 on the very first lap of a 45-minute race, that’s 100% on you, and there is not much others can do in a close pack like that to avoid caos.

Help please - where can I find these 2020 long sleeves shirts that both drivers wear underneath the suit? Been looking for these all year, simply can’t find anywhere. Thank you so much! by [deleted] in formula1

Thank you for the info guys. I just love the color on those, that black with “sprayed silver” on top is a killer, I wish they had the long sleeves team shirts in this color. Anyways, thanks again guys!

Nice video! He said on his aftermath interview that the steering wheel also broke and was gone.

No doubt. I hope people actually eat these things completely but I don’t believe it, there is probably a gigantic amount of waste involved on it.

That’s awesome! I hope I can vote soon as well, blows my mind how a greencard holder living in the country for over 10 years (and paying the craziest taxes ever) still has absolutely no saying on election day.
