The pace difference between wheel and controller is massive and anyone with wheel has got clear advantage. This I feel should be looked at because us pad users have no chance againt wheel users.

in My Australian f1 League... we have a mixture of controller and wheels....and run quick setups only....
and in my league its even between wheel and controller....

it comes down to set ups.... Wheel + custom set up = unbeatable lap times

like i said on the other page...it would even things out if it was restricted to Quick setups

[Liammmmmmm xD]

The gap between wheel and pad isnt as great on other tracks. Tracks like silverstone are better on a pad

[paulric82]

I'm sorry I won't be around for future races then. Wheels make difference at every track and I know they do. Had a friend added who could never beat me now he got wheel I never beat him because it makes BIG difference.

[Liammmmmmm xD]

Im sorry you feel that way. I understand Dubzzy is very quick but he isnt the only one using a wheel

[Dubzzy__]

i dont have a wheel i have a controller......

[paulric82]

Haha don't lie

[Dubzzy__]

why would i lie?, tell you what for every race before we start daddy ill go onto my setting so u can see i run a pad k?

[Liammmmmmm xD]

Guys lets not argue about this, at the end of the day you can use either wheel or pad. You both did fantastic today. Dubzzy to set that time in qualy was incredible. Race100 your fastest race lap was a tenth quicker than dubzzy he was just slightly more consistant. You to are both talented drivers

race start incident 1min 10secs stewards replay
involving McLaren,no further action to be taken,clearly a big lag or bubble glitch problem with dubzy,probable cause unstable connection with dubzy.I would suspect it was unique to dubzy with him being austrailia based,but Dylan Anderson who is also austrailia based didn't seem to suffer any such problems.
request fia also examine this footage and disscuss how we move forward.

1min 13 secs
urban vs Mercedes incident
I judge this to be a racing incident,i do advise both drivers to take it more easy at the start of a race in the future,it does appear that the Mercedes driver moved across closing the door on the lotus,just remember guys leave room for each other.As this was your first races on the site,this is not a formal warning from myself on this occasion.But remember what ive said and take it onboard for future races as warnings then penalties will follow.

1min 25secs
urban vs red bull driver
reminder to urbanrage be more careful in future when returning to track,you did spin the redbull out it is your responsibility to wait and let the redbull repass you or incur a 20sec time penalty.it appears you did wait so no time penalty will be enforced on this occasion.

3min 38secs
I present this as evidence of a major problem with dubzys connection,i would like fia to discuss this.
1min 55secs
dubzy replay.watch the same event from dubzys point of view.
ive analysed both replay carefully,notice my replay the Mercedes is way ahead of the McLaren.
I conclude from this that dubzy has lag which spikes from a couple of tenths up to almost 1 second at times.id like to thank dubzy for the replay he has provided.

4min12secs
part3 stwards replay
lewis vs mateboy1
caution issued to mateboy1 unsafe return to track,be more careful not to return to track in the path of oncoming cars.

5min 20secs part3
jetlife,I would like to draw the attention of fia to this incident,this could indicate another potential problem,jetlife didn't seem to realise the redbull was there,im sure on his screen this wasn't the case.

[rob-lee77]

1min 10sec part 2 stewards replay
urban vs lewis
first of all urban cuts corner hitting lewis,then lewis sweeps across the track taking out urban.
As there has been earlier infringements with urban I feel an official warning should be applied to be a little more careful when racing any further warnings may result in a penalty.
im issueing a caution and not an official warning to lewis to be more careful and to be more aware of where cars are on track in future to avoid inncidents like this happening again

Why not just buy a wheel if you think your at a massive disadvantage.

[jetlife724]

i dont get where im being looked at and for what??

[rob-lee77]

5min 20secs part 3 jetlife buddy,my replay it appears the redbull is not there on your screen,on my replay u shove him out of the way.its not a criticism of your driving,its just me noticing a potential problemwith connection
