    Welcome to Monaco 1972

    The 1972 Monaco Grand Prix was a Formula One motor race held at Monaco on May 14, 1972. It was race 4 of 12 in both the 1972 World Championship of Drivers and the 1972 International Cup for Formula One Manufacturers. The track was substantially modified from 1971, in the interest of safety. The pits were moved to the harbor front, between the chicane and Tabac, and a new chicane was placed near Tabac. Jean-Pierre Beltoise's victory was the only one of his Formula One World Championship career, and the last for BRM.


    Here you can see where the new chicane is located.

  3. The start of the lap seems weird here, you need to do 1,5 laps before it starts to count I think. Also that chicane at the end of the tunnel....:eek:

    For me the lap counter starts when crossing the start/finish line at the start.

    Since the 1st lap ? I'm as Jeffrey, I need to complete a whole 1st lap (in addition of the pit exit) before it starts to count.
    A brillant track btw. And this time it doesn't look we'd have huge FPS problems disrupting the race and Caitlin's broadcast.

    When I was practicing for this offline it wouldn't count the first lap I did out of the pits - so I had to leave the pits and then do an entire lap from the start/finish line before it would start counting them as "valid" laps. Anything before that would just keep counting up as a normal out lap.

    We won't have that problem on the starting grid of the race session. Only in practise and qual.

    I haven't found anything in setup that makes the car quicker really. I was mostly on default setup the past two races apart from changing gears. Shortest gears for this one, other than that it is more down to little changes that suit your driving I'd say. But let me know if you find anything :)

    I Syd, I just short the gears and soft the sway bars but i guess those are more on driver preferences. I can send you the values if you want.

    for once i am not looking forward to this round. I think its just going to be a crash fest, as its just really tight in a couple of places combined with the various braking distances and handling of the cars. That chicane at the end of the tunnel is more like a marshals post exit for rolling a smashed car out of the way! :eek:
    I do like the track mod though, looks great, just might suit little 50's to 70's f1 cars better ;)

    Oh yes it will for sure.. :rolleyes: We usually have mess here and there and this time, only one little fail in the pack will lead to a disaster pile-up.
    Unless everyone gets in "full 24 hours endurance race state of mind" with some very very carefulness during first few laps.

    By the way and paradoxically, I suggest anyone to manage to be ahead of Kimi's Panzer VI after T1.. :D That thing brakes efficiently enough and has a big enough ass to make any overtaking just unthinkable. Not to mention that you'd think you are the Soviet army in '41 as soon as there is a full gaz section. :eek:

    I have to agree.. and hope it won't turn into a crash fest..

    I'm also worried a balloon will cross the track. When starting a session a balloon sits on top of the tunnel as well. I might try to remove them if that does not conflict with the server.

    If only I could figure out how to slide it through some of the corners :) I was watching the video from the mod pack, on how to drive BMW, and he's sliding with counter-steering through most of the turns. That would come in very handy at the hotel hairpin and the last turn.
