    I jumped back in the GR86 at Lime Rock Park this week in the hope I could redeem myself from the somewhat controversial race we had here last time out. Starting from 8th on the grid, I certainly didn't expect things to play out like this!

    Bro you have progressed so damn far. Keep after it! My rig has been sitting idle since the new cod came out lol. I get so hooked on FPS I forget to race lol. Not enough hours in the day I suppose. Once I get back into it again though, the first thing I'm doing is going from my fanatec invterted pedals to the ones you're using.

      imagine how much faster you’ll be with a pretty basic steering wheel + pedals when you can dominate 0 traction control & 0 Anti Lock Brakes. For me in F1 I was losing at least 0.7s every lap with those assists.

    In your second slow mo review of him taking the chicane, you can see that he’s downshifting to 2nd gear and carrying more momentum. I started attacking my that same chicane in 2nd as well recently and got way better lap times.

    How on earth did Soto end up almost 16 seconds ahead! Such a massive difference between him and the rest of the pack.
    I mean obviously he was 1 second + per lap quicker over 15 laps, but that is some consistency. I think you should observe his line 😀

    No wonder you’re is much slower, have you not heard never use shadows as braking points.

    • @boostedmedia
      @boostedmedia  Před rokem +1

      In this particular race the shadow is consistent. But yes generally you don’t want to use anything that moves as a marker. I was just using it as a point of reference in the replay. Not so much when driving.

  • @jonhartley7238
    @jonhartley7238 Před rokem +5

    Dude, you need to stop concerning yourself with the talent behind you and focus just on those ahead. I wonder if you're conscious of being on film and thereby hoping to cover yourself in the event that you are overtaken, but if you're convinced yourself that you can be overtaken, you absolutely will be overtaken. Perhaps try the lambo with no rear view mirror to get out of this habit of doubting yourself.

      @@boostedmedia Fair enough if you can't see their ratings. Though I still think convincing yourself you're doomed to be overtaken, even if they are faster, is going to be hampering you.

      @@jonhartley7238 he based his decision on the fact that the car behind closed the gap insanely quickly, especially on the chicane. He"s always trying to improve his skill, not just win podiums - so its beneficial for him to recognise drivers who are better in certain places.
      Conversely, drivers who never admit they are slower than those behind, never learn. They are the same drivers who pull very shameless and risky blocking manoeuvres because they can't keep the position with skill, and Id argue that's a much less-productive belief to hold.

    • @jonhartley7238
      @jonhartley7238 Před rokem

      @@Alex-ck4in Honestly I agree with both your points, but in terms of progression I have found fairly reliably that questioning what we're doing badly doesn't help as much, Vs recognising what we're doing well. I get it's a juxtaposition and hard to define in a short paragraph, but constantly expecting to be slower slows us down. But the reason I bring it up here is because say 6 months ago (whatever it may have been) Will was saying far more regularly "I am faster than them here, I can get this position", and he was progressing upfeild. Now he's saying "They're faster than me" and he seems surprised that he's able to hold a podium which he predicted he should get. He deserves to recognise his talents openly, and to say "I am faster here" is the same thing as "I can improve everywhere else", but the negative momentum saps confidence and causes all of us , if we allow it, to not fight or defend our place in the order. Maybe it's just my experience, but I can confidently say when I stopped looking backwards and started looking forwards, I was more reliably faster in pace and in push, due to confidence. And when I doubt, I am slower.
