    On 2018 was a big fan of trl limitless you tube setup videos. Mostly they were very fast time trial setups but I found if you added a click or two to the wings then they ran well for races also

    DRIVERS BRIEFING Round 4 - Italian Grand Prix - 26 Laps
    Previous Winner: @KeedenMcdonald
    Please read the following carefully and 'like' it when you have read and understood it.
    [​IMG]

    TRACK LIMITS: As per our rules and regs drivers must keep 2 wheels on the ripple strips or white lines at all times. We all make a mistake or 2, but if you are caught "continually and obviously" running outside the track limits to gain advantage you will be penalized by the stewards group.

    CONTACT: CONTACT IS TO BE AVOIDED AT ALL TIMES. If you make contact with the car in front and gain an advantage, you MUST REDRESS and give the place back. Failure to do so could result in a penalty from the stewards group.

    SWERVING: You are NOT permitted to swerve from side to side on the straights. Drivers may only change direction ONCE on corner entry.

    PRE-RACE: You must wait until a call to ready in the PS4 chat. This will be approximately 45 seconds after the F1 intro sequence, more than enough time to setup a race strategy. DO NOT hit X until the ready call is sent.

    FORMATION LAP: This season will see the introduction of the formation lap to set the clutch bitepoint and to warm up tyres. Please avoid overtaking other cars and leave space.

    TURN 1 LAP 1: You can't win the race at turn 1, but you can certainly lose it. Take care into the first corner and leave plentiful space for other drivers, as this is the most risky part of the race.

    PIT LINES: Use the pit lane lines as indicated. Do not charge into the pit lane as you risk damaging your ego and disrupting the race. Commit early to avoid potentially causing a serious accident. Stay within the lines, you may not cut the exit line AT ALL, otherwise you will receive a warning.

    PIT STOPS: This season will introduce realistic pit stops. You must slow down to the indicated speed limit otherwise you will earn a stop and go penalty. You must also pull away from the pits using the clutch, and deactivate the pit limiter on the pit exit line. Please stick to your given strategy (in a dry race) to avoid accidently double stacking with your teammate.

    BLUE FLAGS: Please observe blue flags, and move out of the way of faster cars if you are being lapped. You should be aware of the leaders coming up on you, and move out of the way as soon as possible. Best to get off the race line, and with a small lift let them go, so you can continue the fight with those in your class. Failure to observe blue flags WILL result in a penalty.

    STEWARDS GROUP AND RACE PROTESTS: You are to PM myself, @Viperzed & @Hatfield should you want to raise a protest. The main Stewards group thread will have all the necessary info in it, regarding rules and regs, and the protest procedure. Please read it and understand how it works.
    http://www.raceonoz.com/forums/index.php?threads/stewards-group-official-thread.2593/

    GROUP CHAT: The chat will be used to convey vital information between sessions. Please do not spam the chat during a qualifying or race session unless it is to warn drivers regarding lag. Abuse will not be tolerated. Time penalties and potential race bans will be dished out. This is your first and only warning.

    QUITTING: This is a huge problem in this game, remember in this series, a safety car will bring you back into the fight. As usual, if you need to leave, make sure you retire the car before leaving the lobby. It is also asked that you do not chuck a hissy fit and take out the brake markers. Rage quitting has been far too frequent in the past, affecting the race results. In all ROOZ races you must aim to finish the race and/or not cause problems for those still racing. Please do not exit the race unless you absolutely need to.

    RECORD YOUR RACE!: Please remember to record your footage via pre recording it or saving it after the race. If you want to protest anything, we can only act on the info we have in front of us, failure to do so will not enable us to view things from your game perspeective, and with some of the issues we have seen, this could have a massive influence on how the stewards group will view and rule on an incident.

    I’m pulling out of this league. I can’t stand the constant bugs in this game that ruins your race time and time again.
    First got dad on formation lap even though I didn’t touch anybody. Got a drive through for jumping the start even though I had my foot on the brake to ensure this doesn’t happen and have got it on video that I didn’t jump the start! After first lap I jump through the pits to complete the drive through penalty only to have my pit crew drag me in For a pit stop and change to mediums. Next lap I complete my drive through only to find that I had absolutely no grip causing me to crash out-once again.
    Over it sorry guys.

    Sorry to hear man, I understand though. Last week I’ve never encountered so many bugs during a race, and I’ve played both Pcars games with no patches!

    Yeah that's fun. Just about had it with F1 too lol. Got a strong start out of P4 and was challenging for P2 out of the first chicane only for 1mm if grass to pull me onto the grass and fall back to P6. Drove back to P4 after a stellar battle with @Russell and Mozza. Followed Harry into the pits only to get a 5 second penalty for not taking the time to practice pit entry. Made a huge mistake on my out lap too through the second chicane that lost me any touch of Harry only for the game to give me another 5 second penalty. Was pretty fed up by this point so chased down the leading pack and made quick work of Harry and @Kartdude45 at the second chicane in one move and dispatched @seth123 around the outside of Turn 1 less than a lap later. Started to drive off into the distance with an easy P2 for the taking (Maybe win at my pace) before I got "greedy" on the exit of ascari and my car turned into a bar of soap off the inside kerb into the wall. Seriously peeved that my inside wheels being on the normal kerbing can send me into the wall like that and ruin any chance of a good result. Good race up front, looking forward to Belgium

    My best F1 race so far. I had some really fun scraps out there. I think I qualified 6th maybe 7th?
    Made a good start and managed to keep it reasonably clean. The first stint was great fun. There was a nice battle going on from 7th to 4th in the first stint. Viperezed and I swap positions a few times in only a few laps.(Awseome fun). I ended having a few lazy laps and thats all viperezed needed to pull a gap on me. Went for a 2 stopper. Came out of the pits for my second stop with a new set of mediums, about 10seconds behind mozza. He was on used hards with 12 laps to go. I managed to catch him on the seconds last lap to take 5th.
    Thanks again blacko for showing me that site. I felt a lot more competitive with the car setup for the track. Also I ended up putting anti brake lock on. I found I lost a lot of feeling and feedback for the tyres gearbox and engine. But it still felt pretty good and I was much more consistent.

    You seem to be awfully defensive for someone who apparently doesn't care about a Tuesday night f1 series :whistling:
