Traction control is still my worst enemy, the tiniest bit of throttle and I spin out. I'm losing so much time from how slow and cautious I'm having to be with it
You'll get used to it! The straighter your wheel the more you can apply. Think of it the opposite to your wheel or controller, full lock 0 traction through to straight wheel 100% traction. And test shifting early if it helps improve your lap time
So today was my first time really disabling ABS and putting the time to learn how to control the car without locking up and this was also a big thing for me because I master traction control off since f1 22 and once I started to push myself and learning from your tips you gave, I can honestly say it helps my racing so much now, I have more to improve on over time but it’s been a major step for me
Do you want the good news or the bad news. The good news is you'll see marginal improvement by stopping doing the no nos in Sim racing but the truth is and I've found this out nothing beats natural talent
Another Great in-depth guide.....Nice one !! One quick tip I'd like to add / pass-on is regarding your Steering..... For a few years, before I bought and upgraded my set-up to a Wheel and Pedals bolted to a proper Racing Rig and Seat, I used to play using a controller and I developed a little technique that helped to give me a LOT more control round corners and generally be much smoother. When you need / want to have more control, simply push and hold Up ^ on your steering joystick then roll the joystick around to the left or right, as though you're using a wheel.....This allows you to add the smallest of change to your steering, and hold it throughout a turn etc, a LOT easier than any other way when playing with a controller. I hope I've described it good enough for everyone to understand and I hope my little technique helps improve your lap times and enjoyment of the game. Keep On Racing People !!
I've heard of this and know ppl that do it. I love the thought process. I wish there were more accounts out there that focused on racing on controller.
@@mgnoodle2589 Glad to hear it helped you !! Remember that you don't have to permanently hold Up, it's only needed when you're cornering.....Some people think you have to hold it for the whole race, when that's not the case. Anyway, happy to hear it's improved your gameplay.....Enjoy !!
Turning. If you are braking then turn slowly. If no braking is required for the turn you can turn the wheel fast. You can dab the brakes mid turn to transfer weight to the front to pull the front of the car into the apex. Using a late apex will give you better straight line speed. When racing with others the racing line isn't the fastest way. You will achieve a faster race time if you let the cars through that have way more pace than you and using them to improve your lap times rather than losing time defending
I've been playing racing sims for a few years now and I just learned that downshifting WHILE braking really helps to slow down the car and shorten brake distances. Before I was downshifting after braking and couldn't figure out why other racers were able to brake so much better than me. My times have improved by multiple seconds in every racing game I play now.
some might disagree with that technique, but you should try overlapping gas and brake. This help me avoid locking my break up, also it can help avoiding to much nosediving which can cause understear. even if you have a good break Bias, this technique help slowing down the transition of the load transfer and therefore improve stabillity. (it can take alot of practice to get it good and can be detrimental if not done properly)
@@4D_SpaceTimewell no I’m pretty sure almost everyone agrees with engine breaking. Since it does indeed slow down the car more while producing more rotation into the corner. You’ll see every single f1 driver taking advantage of engine breaking through the gears on quali and push laps. Just a little iffy when youre trying to lessen degradation since the increased rotation does cook the rear tires.
@@KneedsItsGatits probably more common in F1 than i tought. Im more into rally driving and watching WRC. And thats where i was using this technique de most. And surprisingly alot of player are unaware of this technique.
i have been playing a few sim racing game for the last years, Wrc, dirt 2.0, assetto corsa, Automobillista.. i just got F1 2023, first F1 game ever, and its really overwhelming. i think the game is a bit underated in the sim racing community, its MUCH more complex and way harder than i expected. F1 2023 really puts back your ego on track.
Using 1080p 60fps immediately helped me gain a tenth or two at every track. The game not being able to render the finer bumps on track really helps with grip and traction. Sounds crazy but it works.
A tip for improving really fast and good is to push the car over the limits and is hard to drive faster, you can start braking way later than you thought you could and get to 100% throttle faster than you thought you can and of course you learn really good car control.
@@JacketMarauder89that's the point. You don't know where the limit is until you've crossed it. Obvi the limit is situationally dynamic, so you have to cross it way more than once in one corner on one track. Gotta trust the process, turn off assists and suck for a bit.
@F1SimStreams I'm a near perfect racer similar to Verstappen on this game. I'm just offering my feedback. I haven't even watched the video really but I don't need help for me its all about practice and repetition. That's how I got faster. I started to pick out braking points and not having to look at where my braking points are after a while just have a feel for the car and that's how you become faster when the car is just an extension of yourself. I don't mind offering my own advice though it won't work for everybody but for me its the best method
@@JacketMarauder89 I am really fast aswell (110 AI eveywhere) , but ive never really learned from these videos, i just watch them for entertainment. The way i got to the point i am now is by trial and error, seeing what the car wants me to do andtrying to drive at 107% percent all the time
@@baribg1281I mod the game to give realistic car performances and usually drive as much slower teams against 110% AI so the Red Bull/Ferrari are almost impossible to catch up with. Don't make me laugh
There's 25% more braking power on tap by not downshifting... until your breaking momentum slows, then its several quick down shifts to match the exit rpm of the corner. Also, while your braking, choose a breaking marker that allows your car to carry into the corner and to the apex, as doing so greatly improves front grip thru high speed corners.. like those at Monza and Zandvoort.
after about 6 months of trying and failing to drive on F1 22 i went back to F1 2020 and F1 2021 to start enjoying racing again - i honestly feel the F1 23 handling model is just so much easier than either of these games, the force feedback i get makes me be able to drive a lot more by feel
In F123, if you have ABS on, you can potentially run 50% BB without fear of locking the rear, which can improve your rotation and allow you to get on the power earlier if you do it right. Not a fan of that trick though.
In short, yes. The default setup isn't the quickest. Good trick is to press F1 while you're in the garage and you can load setups from anyone on the leaderboard. More often than not I just use the fastest guy's setup and it works well.
disagree that ABS is slower. It allows you to perfectly trailbreak into every corner by simply standing on the break and letting the system modulate the pressure for you and never lock up. But I like having to adjust the car through small slides and lockups so I still turn it off.
I’ve been thinking of getting the game and making myself play only on the wheel to get myself more used to it. (I have a G920 with no mods other than a H-shifter 6 speed but I won’t use it)
I'm new to car racing on the PS5, but I have to say I'm really bad, when I do a time trial others are so much quicker than me. I am still using the PS5 controller, maybe I need the wheel and pedals? But great helpful video.
Turn off the racing line. Use the meter boards. You can pretty much slow down from a high speed into a shican by braking before the 100m board, maybe the longest straights require braking a moment before that. Most turns brake at the 50 meter board. Tweak it. Sometimes before the meter board, sometimes after. I dislike the racing line and gamer tags, stealing prime view. Use the map to know which turn is next before you master it all. Also there is a racing line on track its a dry line. Goodluck all.
I find it very hard to drive without ABS in games since i have really sh*tty pedals and there’s basically no pressure on them, they cost me maybe like €40 however irl i can easily control my braking and never lock up unless i want to to save myself from not going into a wall, i can even do this in wet weather, so it’s very frustrating. Any tips for good pedals?
The main thing i do and will tell people though because its very difficult to do and i dont think many will figure it out. The reason im top 1% in the world currently in F1 games for several years is I always brake in a straight line but i take a late apex and i will accelerate out of a corner as fast as possible which does risk a spin out BUT it also shaves several hundreths off your lap time. Oh yeah and as weird as it sounds in some corners ill actually brake in a straight line whilst turning into the corner at the same time. A good example of this is Bahrain T10 at the downhill heavy braking hairpin
I think abs is so op that only esport drivers can really take profit from driving without abs to use „the full Potential“ from the brakes. The limit with abs is way to strong and and as a normal driver (AI 105) its too difficult to be faster without abs… more risk and nearly no reward
Struggling with having to play on an xbox pad, can't fukin stand where that left stick is, it's just stupid especially for driving. I was shit hot on PlayStation, but this fuckin pads a joke.
Sorry, but the game is trash. This guy is lying, brake assist constantly being on in 9nline races...this game isn't even close to f1 18- 22...awful game don't waste your time
I just clicked on this to see if you know what the hell youre talking about. You in fact dont know what youre talking about but thats okay the secret to being a quick driver is being naturally gifted

Exactly how I feel
This exactly
You'll get used to it! The straighter your wheel the more you can apply. Think of it the opposite to your wheel or controller, full lock 0 traction through to straight wheel 100% traction. And test shifting early if it helps improve your lap time
@@isaacjones6955 my wheel is straight though 😂😂 if anything i over emphasize the wheel being straight

Biggest challenge for me is driving without Racing line. It needs so much practice for each track
I always struggle to see how and where I lose out to the more advanced drivers. You really are doing the lord’s work mate. Amazing stuff.

You can't get thru turn 5 and 6 fast at Monza without trail braking thru their respective apex.@@4D_SpaceTime

Ah yes, I'll just buy a 2000 pound racing steering wheel that i can't fit in my room. 👍To be real tho this video was really helpful thank you
I’m here because I lose the rear everytime I hit a corner. And I use full traction control. Braking seems different as well
Whoever says "not every corner around the track is a possible overtaking spot" has never seen me race!
My problem is knowing when to brake how hard to brake and when to apply gas without spinning out
This channel is so good! I'm starting to play more racing games and your videos has been really helpful!
Thank you man!
Learning with no traction control I found easier than no abs. Luckily i learned no assists years ago
I have one quick question what would you recommend to change on your setups to make them better for time trial
In short, yes. The default setup isn't the quickest. Good trick is to press F1 while you're in the garage and you can load setups from anyone on the leaderboard. More often than not I just use the fastest guy's setup and it works well.
