Recorded a ghost but I don't think you can load other peoples?

You need to use it for quick upshifts and it can take a bit of practice to get the timing right, but you don't need to use it when downshifting. You can just blip or shift at lower revs.

I tried the G27 shifter but it kept jamming on the gate. I now have a clubsport SQ shifter which is a lot better, but most of the time I just use the paddles.

Was a bit annoyed with race 1 but it ended up being good fun. I think I'd hit escape to go back to pits when the session ended in the background or something so it went back to pits instead of the grid. Since I didn't have to worry about the start I left softs and the qualifying gears on which helped me overtake. Everyone was nice and clean which is always good to see.

Second race I took softs again and just tried to drive clean and steady to make sure they didn't go off at the end like they did in race 1 so it was pretty uneventful.

I expect Marty to smash everyone next week. We Group A drivers will just have to try harder


You can use shortcuts to switch cars in multiplayer if you want to watch other people,  then F1 I think it is to cycle views. Don't know if you can get a tv cam that way. I think you have to be in car, so you could just sit in the pits and do it.

CTRL+1: switch to previous opponent car
CTRL+3: switch to next opponent car
CTRL+2: switch to player car

I'm currently faster in the 312T@monza with default downforce level. Race should be interesting when we see what people use. It's a long way to T1
