This car is almost a perfect machine to exploit all my inabilities as a driver :mad:

.
To start with, driving it without ABS is simply not an option. I had ABS settings to min (9 I think) on the first race and it's not only that you slide like a penguin trying to follow the drivers in front, the whole lap is compromised due to the handicap with the braking. :confused:

Then I reduced it a bit for the second race (down to 4 or 5) but I think it's either 1 or you run out of chances... At least with my driver's skills for the GT4s... :oops:

With the updated settings I managed low 40s in the second race but still far from the top runners... So what else!?
My terrible obsession to downshift too much when I am rushing for speed! :mad:

Down to 2nd gear in T12 undermining the exit for the long straight... and many other of my defects that this car masters to exploit.
It's good to see some improvements over the session. By the end of the second race I've managed to cut down 1.5 secs from my best times in practice but that's not enough and too late. I end up overdriving the car most of the time, particularly when driving on my own. Following a car with a similar pace makes me avoid some of the late braking defects, etc, and I improve my times.
It was quite fun the fight with @Ken Jagger in the first race. Good chase and overtake from Ken and I managed to put myself together for a robust response. Following @Lorenzo Galluzzi in the second race improved my times, whilst I could... @Mark Johnson had a moment and I tried to follow unsuccessfully... He was on the 39s. That was the race for me. Lost their tail and driving alone till the end.
Finally, there is something about Interlagos... I think I fully suffer from Daniel Ricardo's syndrome with this track...
Obviously, I should put on more practice for Nurburgring.
