So you guys are telling me that the circuit was repaved recently, which would have increased grip therefore laptime. Sound likes a good excuse to me, i'll go with that! ;P
don't forget all tyre compounds were made one step softer for 2018 so if this car is a 2017 code with a halo then you were on the harder compound anyway
Lewis is a world class driver one of the best in the history and he is MAYBE better than Jimmy who never ever sat even close to a f1car and drives a shitty simulator? Wake up Lewis is 1000 times better.... (Im not a Lewis fan)
Tanner Smith Just one step actually, but there's a new compound (hyper soft) that's two steps softer than last year's ultras which might be why you're confused.
Crank up the downforce to max. Teams run max or close to max at BCN. It's an aero track, therefore it requires a heck of a lot of DF. Plus the repaving, which added about 1.6 seconds.
I'd say 2 seconds max tbh, if that. Pole time was 3 seconds quicker than last year, but this year's cars should theoretically be faster anyway and they were also using softer tyres (super softs vs softs used last year).
My fastest was 1:26:-. Absolutely rediculous how fast these guys are. And we're using sims so we don't have to worry we die so we can go all out and even then. Just amazing
Even with my best efforts, high 1:16's for me on the hypersofts. The track resurfacing made a huge difference this year. Pole lap between last year and this year was just insane... I hope someone makes a mod soon for the resurfaced version of this track, I didn't even post a lap on this circuit for the 2018 car because of sheer frustration :(
You also have to consider the fact that Hamilton made 3 set up changes during the lap (watch the steering wheel on the video) where you don't seem to have that capability
the circuit of catalunya was repaved which makes the cars much faster, the version in AC still has the old asphault properties so I doubt you can beat the time.
Brake a bit less through the first Set of corners and overall througout the track. If you notice, the car naturally slows down through the high speed corners due to G force. Dab of brake to get the car turned then let the tires load up so you carry a bit more momentum..
Do you feel like this Formula Hybrid 2018 has just a bit too much of a turbo lag, for me it seems immense, i have to drive it nearly banging the rev limiter for the car do be responsive.
I think he should have put more downforce on that car. In real life Hamilton did T9 at 262 minimum kmph on the other hand Jimmy did it at 232 kmph I think he could get close with more downforce and if he pushed harder on the last corner before starting the lap. Jimmy, you've been #Blessed!
I know you only recently did GT SPORT but I'd like your input/ video of a few online races. I think when you get to s class you'll really enjoy the lobby
Hey Jim! Maybe try a side by side comparison of your fastest time against Hamiltons time like what Sky Sports does? maybe that might help catch out some differences :) cheers!
I never use 2nd gear in Spain bro, last sector, i think its turn 12, the long right, its 4rd, the entry on the chicane its 4, u only put 3rd braking into the left corner of the chicane, leave the chicane in 3rd. NEVER PUT 1st or 2nd GEAR
Yet again, seen someone do a 1:17.2 with softs at 20°C air temp, but then again this dude is alien af and did far more laps EDIT: my best is 1:18.6 - also quite some time off
Turn 3 was flat this year and turn 9 was very nearly flat. So maybe that’s because of the new track surface or maybe the physics on this car are not completely accurate. Pole in 2017 was a 1:19.1 and I don’t doubt your abilities. So blame it on the cars physics in this game :D
The Stock Market Investor its because he's using VR. When recording through a VR headset, it only records the left eye, as recording both wouldn't translate well at all onto a normal screen for us to watch. That's why he looks off centre
This track is really slow In Assetto Corsa, it's the only track I cannot get close to the real life lap times in equal cars.. just something about the track/cars there makes it so you cannot match the times, while on almost any other track the difference is not nearly as huge.
TheTripol your right there is something up with this track. Although with the SF15H i managed to be withing 0.050 of vettels pole time that year. These new area f1 cars in assetto are just not aqqurate enough
I'm still trying to beat Laurens Vanthoor's pole time at the Nordschleife... I'm not even close yet and it's pissing me off :P Maybe anyone has any tips? My time at this moment is 8:19
i think this formula car just misses 50% extra downforce, the speed out of the corner where brendon hartley crashed hard they went around 250 you around 230
NevCee for jimmy it is centered but if you want to record while playing in vr only one eye (typically the left one) gets captured and hence the result we see here
Hey jimmy try to shift down one gear as you usually use to accelerate out of the corner and then shift up the right gear to accelerate out, this will make you to gain lap times #PleaseReadThis
So you guys are telling me that the circuit was repaved recently, which would have increased grip therefore laptime. Sound likes a good excuse to me, i'll go with that! ;P
don't forget all tyre compounds were made one step softer for 2018 so if this car is a 2017 code with a halo then you were on the harder compound anyway
Also, T3 was fully flat and T9 was almost flat in qualy. So there is a big time difference there
That's right Jimmer, I was about to put that in here but its obviously been said.
ua-cam.com/video/p5gNsMEtnuI/v-deo.html You might like a look at Peter Windsors analysis of Lewis in turn 3
Yeah that’s true and why the cars were so much faster this year than they were last year
1) party mode
2) new surface on the circuit
3) new tires
4) the car is not accurate
5) maybe Lewis is a bit faster
ouaisgro maybe Lewis is a bit faster?😂
Swagwan not sure, but it’s a realistic possibility 😏
ouaisgro I seriously doubt the last one! *sarcasm*
Party mode is just qualifying mode. People still act like party mode is some Mercedes trickery.
Lewis is a world class driver one of the best in the history and he is MAYBE better than Jimmy who never ever sat even close to a f1car and drives a shitty simulator? Wake up Lewis is 1000 times better.... (Im not a Lewis fan)
Resurfacing sure... and a million other variables that can’t be simmed
You know Jimmy's really, REALLY trying when he doesn't talk at all during a lap ...
I really like when you tell us what you feel in the car and what you need to change to make the car better. That is really good commentary
I'm really interested in what setup changes are made, and how you decide what changes are necessary.
thicc brit destroyed by skinny brit .circa colorized
Track resurfacing and the supersofts from last year being the softs for this year should give you about 3 seconds or so
Robert Lopez pretty much this.
The tires from this year are two steps softer so technically this years medium was last years supersofts
Tanner Smith Just one step actually, but there's a new compound (hyper soft) that's two steps softer than last year's ultras which might be why you're confused.
Also, the W09 in this sim might not be an accurate simulation of the W09 which raced in Catalunya (aero adjustments and all)
"Can I beat Lance Stroll's back of the grid lap time"
Is the scaling of the track correct? You could drive it at a set speed, calculate its actual length and compare it to the published length.
F1 turbos dont need to spool up, an electric engine keeps it up to speed at all times when off throttle.
Best simply racing channel. Just found it and this guy is a proper dude. No BS 🤘
Crank up the downforce to max. Teams run max or close to max at BCN. It's an aero track, therefore it requires a heck of a lot of DF. Plus the repaving, which added about 1.6 seconds.
explains why they use Catalunya for preseason testing
Pretty sure the resurfacing this year alone have 2 or 3 seconds to the cars.
I'd say 2 seconds max tbh, if that. Pole time was 3 seconds quicker than last year, but this year's cars should theoretically be faster anyway and they were also using softer tyres (super softs vs softs used last year).
nah those blessed modded pirellis make all the difference ;)
That was really great to watch, thanks Jimmy!
My fastest was 1:26:-. Absolutely rediculous how fast these guys are. And we're using sims so we don't have to worry we die so we can go all out and even then. Just amazing
If you put the hybrid recovery to Motor instead of Battery I think that helps a bit with the turbo lag but you wont recover as much hybrid power.
BEEN WAITING FOR THIS JIMMER 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Even with my best efforts, high 1:16's for me on the hypersofts. The track resurfacing made a huge difference this year. Pole lap between last year and this year was just insane...
I hope someone makes a mod soon for the resurfaced version of this track, I didn't even post a lap on this circuit for the 2018 car because of sheer frustration :(
Time for a sequel! Make sure to double your porridge intake for this one.
Great as always Jimmer
Can't wait for the Monaco edition of this series.
Friend of mine hotlapped on iRacing for near enough 2 hours and did a 1:16.159 in the McLaren.
Tyres are a step softer than last year, and the track has new asphalt, that is probably most of your time difference
Sorry what sim was this done with? Looks great!
Hi Jimmy, great effort. I'm not even gonna try. Quick question. Where are you getting the cars from (with halo). Is there a particular site?
You also have to consider the fact that Hamilton made 3 set up changes during the lap (watch the steering wheel on the video) where you don't seem to have that capability
it was the car definetly. and the track and the tyres! it is never the driver. very cool video. would really like to see more of this stuff
try more of this ,i love it,so much fun
the circuit of catalunya was repaved which makes the cars much faster, the version in AC still has the old asphault properties so I doubt you can beat the time.
Brake a bit less through the first Set of corners and overall througout the track. If you notice, the car naturally slows down through the high speed corners due to G force. Dab of brake to get the car turned then let the tires load up so you carry a bit more momentum..
Do you feel like this Formula Hybrid 2018 has just a bit too much of a turbo lag, for me it seems immense, i have to drive it nearly banging the rev limiter for the car do be responsive.
Barcelona has been my favourite track since Geoff Crammond's Grand Prix 2.
I think he should have put more downforce on that car.
In real life Hamilton did T9 at 262 minimum kmph on the other hand Jimmy did it at 232 kmph
I think he could get close with more downforce and if he pushed harder on the last corner before starting the lap.
Jimmy, you've been #Blessed!
Lewis took 261 KPH through turn 9 in 7th, that was crazy compared to every other pole lap on this circuit
A bit late here, but why doesn't Jimmy like Catalunya? I always found it to be pretty fun. Except for the last chicane. That needs to burn.
Are you in the old surface, as they retarmacced it this year? Id put in about a 1:25
You could add where would you have got in the grid with each hot lap you take...
I know you only recently did GT SPORT but I'd like your input/ video of a few online races. I think when you get to s class you'll really enjoy the lobby
hey jimmer could u do montoya monza 2004 record? not a pole lap but it's quite iconic. thanks!
Hey Jim! Maybe try a side by side comparison of your fastest time against Hamiltons time like what Sky Sports does? maybe that might help catch out some differences :) cheers!
Is that Assetto Corsa? How can I get that car? Is it from a DLC?
Great videos, Jimmy!
What is the outro music ( I know "Running in the 90's ) but this remix is so good
Pretty sure its just called running in the 80's
ua-cam.com/video/-eetJ42lLjg/v-deo.html
I think this is what you are looking for.
Thanks a lot!
I love these VR videos
Jimmy, when u play in VR everything seems skewed to the left, as a consequence it looks like you miss right hand apexes?
Mine does that too. I think its just the output to the monitor. In the headset you can adjust position to your liking
Jimmy, please try to beat Barrichello's 1:21.046 in Assetto Corsa!!!
I haven't been able to go under 1:22 yet.
I never use 2nd gear in Spain bro, last sector, i think its turn 12, the long right, its 4rd, the entry on the chicane its 4, u only put 3rd braking into the left corner of the chicane, leave the chicane in 3rd. NEVER PUT 1st or 2nd GEAR
Has anyone noticed that the car’s wheelbase is really short compared to all of the other ones in the mod and the same car in real life has it bigger
Well this is gonna be relatively impossible. The track isn’t even repaved, also 1:16 insaneness.
I just can't get it right here either. My best is a 1:20.938. There are people doing 1:17s but like how??
Stupid question time. Did you run qualy fuel?
I wondered when this video was coming. I'm happy now.
reducing wing definitely is NOT the answer given how many long corners there are here.
great vid. check out the f1 2018 cars in automobilista if you haven't already. Very good as well. Just no VR sadly.
Anyone know what kind of tuning he's done to the car? I can't get past 315km/h on that straight.
Which mods does he use for these f1 cars?
Car sounds like a spaceship
What's with the minute of nothing at the end?
I have TOTAL simpathy for Lance Stroll after watching this video.
6:36 *=* Intensifies
Any reason you didn't use DRS on the back straight?
Yet again, seen someone do a 1:17.2 with softs at 20°C air temp, but then again this dude is alien af and did far more laps
EDIT: my best is 1:18.6 - also quite some time off
Turn 3 was flat this year and turn 9 was very nearly flat. So maybe that’s because of the new track surface or maybe the physics on this car are not completely accurate. Pole in 2017 was a 1:19.1 and I don’t doubt your abilities. So blame it on the cars physics in this game :D
Are you off centre? or did you program it like that? My OCD would force me to drive in the centre of the ingame chair
The Stock Market Investor
We're seeing what he sees in his left eye which is why it looks slightly off center
The Stock Market Investor its because he's using VR. When recording through a VR headset, it only records the left eye, as recording both wouldn't translate well at all onto a normal screen for us to watch. That's why he looks off centre
Try to match last year's time on SF70H, should be much more relevant
You dont use the kerbs at all like the F1 drivers do through section 2 up the hill.. I rekon watch a few onboards and you'll get closer
No Party-Mode in AC?
Coses Gaming Party mode is what Lewis calls stage 4 engine mode or "qualifying mode".
Ok, so call it whatever you want, but going by Toto it's called party mode ;)
Someone recruit Jimmy into a pro racing team
Being blessed gains you 4 seconds in lap time everyone knows that
Is that Steam Assetto Corsa? Can mods be applied?
cool idea!
Love the new outro
Jimmy got the Honda engine.
This track is really slow In Assetto Corsa, it's the only track I cannot get close to the real life lap times in equal cars.. just something about the track/cars there makes it so you cannot match the times, while on almost any other track the difference is not nearly as huge.
TheTripol your right there is something up with this track. Although with the SF15H i managed to be withing 0.050 of vettels pole time that year. These new area f1 cars in assetto are just not aqqurate enough
Hmm you mean Rosbergs pole of 2015?
It’s all of the circuits. Then I watch my time against Lewis round Spa I got a 1:46.0 but I beat him on the video. Check my lap on my channel.
I'm guessing this is a mod due to the car having the halo?
Finally the chicane is gone!
The halo looks ridiculous in cockpit mide
Why yellow not red tires?
Are you relative of Murray Walker because you sound like him occasionally lol
you not using every inch of the track possibly explain why you're so far of the track as well...
Where can you download this f1 car with halo?
Pretty good considering you don't have a team of professional mechanics and engineers helping you set up the car!
Maybe try it with the official Ferrari SF70H?
I'm still trying to beat Laurens Vanthoor's pole time at the Nordschleife... I'm not even close yet and it's pissing me off :P
Maybe anyone has any tips? My time at this moment is 8:19
Wow cool new outro
Track has been resurfaced this year
Blessed boy 1-1 Jimmer
GT40 at Nordschleife. That's all I want.
And since Jimmer likes it why not
i think this formula car just misses 50% extra downforce, the speed out of the corner where brendon hartley crashed hard they went around 250 you around 230
Did I miss it but what game is this?
Why is the VR camera always slightly to the left and not centered?
NevCee for jimmy it is centered but if you want to record while playing in vr only one eye (typically the left one) gets captured and hence the result we see here
agenthoini Ahh, okay, thanks. Been wondering about that for a long time.
NevCee yeah i too only found out by asking a while ago :D
NASCAR ad on an f1 video??
sparksk8er Got the same ad. Guess it’s because I’m in America.
@@DeoVindice_61-65 Could've easily been INDYCAR then
Hey jimmy try to shift down one gear as you usually use to accelerate out of the corner and then shift up the right gear to accelerate out, this will make you to gain lap times #PleaseReadThis
They ruined the last corner, used to be a fast sweeping right on to the back straight now it's a chicane
What is the 107% cutoff?
Where did you got the car?
you are almost 50 kph down in turn 9
how do you get the correct skins for the f1
You used lower gears sometimes, u didnt made turn 2 and right hander before 2nd drs zone flats and its why u did just 1:20 :p
I had to use a lower gear because of the how the car is in-game. I also mentioned my mistake at the end of the video.
Jimmy Broadbent Aa yeach, its true.
I think the halo slowed your car down!
Jimmy's big boi britches weren't quite big enough.
