F1 2011 Ferrari Monza 20% Grand Prix

My first proper race, keeping it simple getting used to car handling, so far so good. Lots more to test in the coming days.

looks like a great game but its shame there isnt 2 pitstops on a 20% race

[TeamVVV]

@IVIonsterIVIunch Well to be fair to the dev team that just wouldn't work on such a short distance.

Dear Alan...I would like a comment as far as the AI is concerned.Does it feel tougher that 2010.

-Is there anything that you did not like??I am worried that you passed easily 4 cars at the start of the race.

-Is the AI balnced in all tracks(catalunya issue in 2010)??

Thank you for the nice vids.....

[TeamVVV]

@Mantonis83 AI is a bit of a mixed bag, much harder on the upper difficulty, cars are often very aggressive in unconventional overtaking areas.I really couldn't say about every track, won't have the time to run them all this week but will give feedback on the ones I do try.

Hey Alan, thanks for this nice preview.

A few questions:

-Have you felt a noticeable grip loss when using DRS ?

-Do you know if real DRS rules are implemented ? (can't use it during firsts laps, neither when you have wet tyres, and unrestricted use during quali)

-Do you think the physics has been made easier ? Looking at your video it seems less forgiving, esp. when you drive on kerbs, go off the track, and re-accelerate at hairspins.

Thanks :]

@webdigit I've been pretty sensible with DRS so chances are you'll fly off high speed corners if its open. DRS rules are implemented. With TCS on the game is a lot easier, upcoming handling video with show that.

every video i saw of f1 2011 was with a steering wheel and pedals, did you try it with the joystick and how does it feel?

How can you drive under such input lag... What a vid btw~

Good review Al. Also good to meet you also last Friday at Eurogamer exhibition. I was the guy who was quizzing you on Forza 4 and discussing Fanatec CSR wheels etc. Did you say you had the Playseat ? If you want to take this chat offline please let me know your email address. Thanks. Steve

@Mantonis83 what happened in catalunya. Was the Ai really hard there because that happened to me i just want to see if were on the same level. And in that race i came last in every session and i was working my bum out and still i came 24th

I have changed the camber/toe-in settings at Silverstone and the car now nicely gets around the old Turn 1 (Copse). From the top then.. -2.80, -1.20, 0.10, 0.29

Might work around 130R too, I haven't tried or maybe will need a bit more tweaking.
