I couldn’t agree more, this is coming from someone with a full sim setup. I tried FH4 and was kinda meh to it at first using a controller, but I kept coming back.

If one’s a manual and one’s an auto, it goes to the manual. If both MT, it’s a toss-up. If both auto, I’d probably go for the TSX wagon.
Welcome to high performance driving. Now go get an old BMW or a Miata. Hell, you can take your own car if it's not a truck, and join a car owners club BMWCCA, Audi club, etc. Then sign up for what is called "drivers Ed." Warning, it is very addictive. I feel into the hole for a dozen years.
When I saw the headline “You Must Pick One” and then that Traverse taking up two spaces, I thought this was for sure going to be a story on not being an ass-hat.
I did a track day there in August. Sensory overload nails it - you’re trying to drive as hard as you can, while also watching for cars in mirrors and in front of you. It’s so much information to process at once, while you’re feeling g-forces similar to a roller coaster, which you are controlling.
Isn’t that true of any car that’s heavily reliant on downforce, regardless of how its generated? I imagine the current cars already have that issue. Hell look how crap they are when cornering while following another car.
Here is a factor to consider about ground effects cars. They often have a window of speed where you cannot take a corner because there is not enough mechanical grip and you are not going fast enough for the ground effects to generate big downforce. This makes it very hard to work your way up to the car’s limits. You…
Good. Everything listed in this article will (hopefully) lead to better racing.
I’m guessing lap times will go up by a decent bit as the result of the changes. But a finnicky car that’s a bit slower will probably mean for better viewing for the fans. We don’t have to drive the things!
No, the point of the test is to get around the moose in the safest manner possible.
Agreed with the whole list except the F40. If I could afford an F40, I’d absolutely own an F40.
It’s clear that nobody at Jalopnik actually watches the races start to finish. It’s also clear that everybody at Jalopnik hates F1.
“or you didn’t, because there is more to life than Formula 1. Or, like me, you were lucky enough to turn it on with ten laps to go to find Lando Norris in the lead and Lewis Hamilton in second”
They didn’t tell him to switch to inters, they asked him if he was interested, to which he responded No.
“I know, Vladimir. It’s just that there’s no way we can get nineteen drivers to crash.”
Except that this is a WEATHER event.
Lando had the support of his Pitwall team. His Pitwall team was suppose to make decisions along with him.
If you’re old enough/judged responsible enough to drive a vehicle on public roads, you’re old enough/responsible enough to face adult charges for vehicular crimes.
If nothing else, iracing is a great way to understand how insanely fast (and difficult to drive) modern F1 cars are. I’m by no means a hot shoe in iracing, but I can shuffle a Miata around in a respectable time, and worked my way up to be competitive in Formula Renault. I tried even the obsolete McLaren F1 car and…
“The thing is, we wouldn’t even still be talking about this if F1 had chosen not to make those two laps count as a race, or moved to run the grand prix on Monday or Tuesday like NASCAR and IndyCar probably would’ve done. But the powers that be were adamant that postponing the race was a non-starter due to agreements…
