Honestly as I improve something he said near the end really stuck out, "It felt slower". I was racing LMP3 at Spa last week. My fastest laps were the laps that I felt like I was going slow and they were in the 12 seconds. And the laps were I felt fast I went slower.
I’ve had this too. My best lap around Brands Hatch felt super slow. So much so that the next lap I pushed harder because I thought I was really under the limit and I lost a ton of time on understeer on entry or oversteer on exit.
i mean my first idea is looking at Leclerc racing laps and lets say Zhous racing laps ..Zhou might look faster than Leclerc but he isnt...soft imputs and short corners look less agreessive but they are faster for example...our eyes can lie
Just now getting into sim racing. Glad I found this channel, learned a lot already. About the video. It must be a great feeling as a teacher to see one of your students make a breakthrough. Congrats to you both.
I'm moving into a new house and want to make that a start in sim racing as well. I used to be fast for my size in hire karts (lame flex I know), curious how that translates :) Nothing like learning from otherr people's mistakes! That how the F1 world champ did it. His dad had enough time in racing and F1 to make a bunch of mistake to teach him about, before he even got there.
I shaved 10 seconds. Again 10 seconds off my laptime on my first try tonight!! The understanding on oversteer vs understeer after applying this gave me 10 seconds and now i know that i feel it, and i can now start to attune to it, and then adjust the car a bit to play with it. I just see so many doors opening in my mind on how i can polish all this up once its ingrained fundamentally!!! I was laughing out loud in excitement at the realization!!! Thank you sir for your hard work and dedication!!
You’re a fantastic teacher. I’ve never raced a car in real life and haven’t sim raced for much longer than 2 years. The gains i’ve made from just watching your videos is significant. Excellent 👌🏽 🔥
The course is phenomenal. I took a few days with no racing just to watch the course all the way through. Then got on Iracing just to try and implement a few things. I finally turned the racing line off and that took a bit to get used to. Just from watching the course I could see the mistakes in my techniques.. almost like he was whispering in my ear lol! Laguna Seca was a nightmare before the course and to some degree still is but I understood what was going on even if I couldn’t fix all of it I did find more consistency at a faster pace. This week with his approach I was able to learn a new track much faster and do pretty well with 2 podiums so far. Still have a lot to learn but this course definitely works.
Man...Suellio...your advice in every regard, is absolutely invaluable! Watching some of your stuff has helped me a lot, not just with pace...but with racecraft, situational awareness, extra techniques to apply to how I work with whatever vehicle I'm racing better.... Then the stuff I found more difficult than driving...the mental stuff...because I have ADHD, I struggled with patience, temperament, carrying the mood of a bad race into the next one, and being relaxed in my rig. Not so much any more since I have been watching you. 😊 You do exquisite work! And it's very highly appreciated. Also, it's nice to see you occasionally pop in to Jayme's streams sometimes aha! Her and her community are literally the best people! ^ _ ^! ❤ Anyway, hope you have an awesome rest of your week! I gotta keep resting my broken foot so I can get racing again aha, much love 🤘 🔥 🏎 🫶
So basically, to sum it up, on exits we keep the car stable by not fishing for grip at the end of it, so we don’t spin. You turn less to correct oversteer and don’t turn to not make understeer worse. Also, pedals determine our car’s rotation, and we should understeer at the end to not over correct (fishing for grip)
I want to make sure I get it.. the message here is to trail brake less, and get back on to the throttle earlier but ramp up more slowly? This will cause the car to be closer to understeer rather than oversteer, and then we can fish for grip to be right under that understeer limit? But what happens if I go out too wide because I’m under steering and miss the apex, would I just lift off the throttle a bit more to turn in more?
Mano...Eu aqui..do RS...iniciando conteúdo no YT, me deparo com esse rapaz que foi estudar música no exterior...e virou PILOTO!

Bom dia Suellio! Sou do Brasil e sempre estou assistindo seus vídeos para tentar melhor como piloto virtual. Muito obrigado pelo conteúdo que você faz.
I often forget how important it is to start from the cues the sim gives you for grip. I often get caught up trying to optimize braking around the track.
Great video as always Suellio. Side note, i think Rogan should have you on his podcast lol i saw that he got a crazy sim rig and im sure the conversation would flow beautifully. Would get you a ton of recognition that you deserve as well. But that's not to say that you arent doing amazing on your own! Love watching your journey and im always striving to learn more. I always know I'm going to learn some valuable information with every video you put out man
From the initial lap, the primary things that were bugging me were not using all the track available, not fully applying the brakes, not using all the grip available when cornering, being a bit jerky with inputs, and maybe some early apexing. Edit: I think this is a good method for newer drivers to know when they're on the limit. It's possible to induce understeer or oversteer at any point of the corner. Learn to do that intentionally, then start pushing closer and closer to the limit and apply oversteer inputs to correct for understeer and vice versa.
Could be wrong, but seems like he tries to initiate every turn too soon and loses good time. Maybe a lack of trail braking or too much braking as he’s going straight rather than being on the brake to rotate. Gear shifts weren’t very smooth also.
I think this video could have included something about why weight transfer needs time (hint: it's the springs and dampeners) and why you cannot instantly go from brake to full throttle in most cases while driving at the limit. Sure, going to full throttle instantly looks aggressive, but so does drifting and we all know it's not the fastest way forward.
He's definitely not carrying speed through, he's not using the full track width on corner exit... Maybe he's not planning where the car wants to be, overslowing the car on entry, and not using the absolute maximum reference points. This is my first guess.
Useful stuff as usual, especially in this week. I was wondering if on this track running on lap times around 36.3/36.0 in race trim fixed with my G923 and used tyres is somewhere nearly decently quick. Wondering it since I saw lap times going on 1'35 and the record is around 34 high. Generally I feel like I have some extra bullets to shot in terms of speed.
1:40 immediately I’m thinking for one his shifting is bad, two into the first turn he held the wheel to the right on exit instead of letting the car go a little wider to carry more speed, another thing I notice is him braking too much/too early and throttling up mid corner to compensate which to my knowledge would throw off the balance of the car and is unnecessary when you could just brake later, trail off and throttle up on exit. I’m hoping I’m right about this, not gonna change my comment if I’m wrong, im a slow driver myself and I’ll be pretty proud if I correctly guessed the things slowing him down, especially since I myself make those mistakes tons.. 😅 okay, not necessarily a correct observation, it’s odd idk why I’ve never really thought of it but I have always had issues with corner exit oversteer, thought to myself “yup need to carry less speed” and wondered why I was slow, it’s not speed or throttle but how much I’m asking the car to steer while exiting. Good video I’ll have to really pay attention to that more
Hi Suellio, why you told the student to induce understeer by reducing trial braking plus small throttle mid corner, when you advocated ”oversteer is faster than understeer”? Why not just ask the student to brake with the same force and duration, but brake later, thus carrying higher speed into the corner with a more oversteery car, thus more rotation and earlier full throttle? Thanks.
Because the driver was causing oversteer that was so intense that he slowed his exit which made him think he needed to go slower. By having him cause understeer, the back end stayed planted which showed him that he could enter and carry more speed through the turn. With this new information, he can better judge his grip and optimize his whole corner including the exit.
I'm a newbie and I'm really struggling with the concept of wanting oversteer in the corners. I see you're saying that it is to do with finding the limits but I'm not sure how exactly?
Looks like he is not using full downforce of the car therefore braking earlier, carries less speed midcorner. GT style of driving applied to formula car Id say. Edit: Ok I guess I was partially correct, good idea and thoughts but maybe not the best choice of words. I always considered myself sports car main but Im finding a lot of success in formula license that cannot be ignored haha. Thanks for all the guides Suellio
im sitting around 4.5k irating. maybe 8 or 9 tenths off the "aliens". How much can i benefit from coaching sessions from you or someone associated with you. Is it worth doing for me?
Inducing understeer to find *the limit*. Basically this guy was not even close to reaching the limits of the car so suellio is explaining how to find the limit in a a quicker manner.
@@RyanBlaschkeArt exactly, initially the guy was losing the car on exit which was giving him the impression that he had to be slower into those turns, but in fact he was very under the limit and losing the car on exit was unrelated to the exit speed
I don’t drive this car a lot, but main thing I noticed was very early upshifting that often causes the engine to work below the power band and decrease acceleration Edit: I was wrong 😂 but still curious if he’s shifting a bit early. Good work, driver
would you recommend a course for beginner drivers? I've been driving on a controller for 500+ hours and I just bought myself t300 and want to start out without bad habits

Hello Suello I Have a trouble and I think you may help me (if you want) , I have been using Logitech pedals for 1 year but as sim racing focused Its been 6 months of everyday use ; the problem is I can’t trail brake anymore the pressure falls down to quickly and there is no middle (there is but I have to slow down a lot) , is there anything I can do?
get some Lubed pcb cleaner, tear down the pedals and clean the potentiometer. That will make it better, they get soo dirty especially if its under the desk all the time.
Hi, I really appreciate the videos and these big improvements but I think it would be way cooler to help someone just under esports level to improve .2s or so. I'm like .6% off lap records and finding those last tenths seems impossible.
1st clip misses apex, for the onboard he seems to waste the rotation he creates under braking by accelerating before the acceleration point. Probably overslowing.
Too little breaks early entry, under the limit whole corner, sometimes coasting mid corner and releasing breaks too early & track usage could be greatly improved!

thats more car differences, the faster f1 cars are usually alot less stable and require less correcting@@mrbungle3310
Some F1 drivers look like they're on in laps when they're actually setting a new pole time. No drama.
The fastest laps are usually when you’re not trying to go fast.
Just now getting into sim racing. Glad I found this channel, learned a lot already.
About the video. It must be a great feeling as a teacher to see one of your students make a breakthrough. Congrats to you both.
I'm moving into a new house and want to make that a start in sim racing as well. I used to be fast for my size in hire karts (lame flex I know), curious how that translates :)
Nothing like learning from otherr people's mistakes! That how the F1 world champ did it. His dad had enough time in racing and F1 to make a bunch of mistake to teach him about, before he even got there.

i think the fact that his first lap looked incredible to me goes to show how slow i am, i'll be sure to watch more of your videos to get even faster
insane cant wait to hit the sim now
Source of the plateau. That was deep man
Previously: "Oversteer is faster than understeer"
This time: "Induce understeer throughout the corner."
Could be wrong, but seems like he tries to initiate every turn too soon and loses good time. Maybe a lack of trail braking or too much braking as he’s going straight rather than being on the brake to rotate. Gear shifts weren’t very smooth also.
Planning to buy your course
If you haven't yet, I think today is the last day for 50% off. Code: CHAMPION50

I’m sooo glad that I watched this video I had the wrong mentality about caring to much speed in to the corner..

Just checked in!!
can anyone tell me the track
I struggle with trying to implement too many things at once, and what I’m doing wrong
I feel like the lines could be better and he could carry more speed through the corners
talk about being coachable, damn!
Love this track.
Care to share the track name?
what track is this
Watkins glen

is that a f3 car?
super formula light
I gained 3 seconds thanks to you!
Wow
1STT SUELLIO IM A HUGE FAN
That guy thinks hes just the hottest shit to touch iracing
who is?
Not gna lie, seemed the like guy simple didn't know how to drive at all beforehand 😅
rally
All this isnt as easy on controller
I think if the title includes the skill or technique being discussed it'll be better and garner more interest.
That's not real, it's just a game with a computer or a phone.
You are correct sir!
