    • @me282uk
      @me282uk Před 19 dny +3

      The driver isn't always the limitation on speed and tracks. If you want fans to attend, then the limit is also what the track infrastructure can cope with to keep the audience safe from hundreds of kilos of carbon and metal travelling at these speeds. In terms of that limit, there isn't really any extra you can get, besides removing the physical weight of the driver vs the extra computer modules and sensors; a circuit isn't going to be rebuilt just for an AI series.

  • @ZwilnikSF
    @ZwilnikSF Před 17 dny +4

    As a coder and F1 fan, I watched the 'race' and can only say it was embarrassingly bad. Most of the race ended up being at 50mph or under (rather a lot at 0mph when cars refused to overtake stuck cars under yellow). There was an overtake after the restart when the 2nd of the remaining 2 cars dived down the inside of the leader, but that was mostly because the leading car appeared to see the overtaking car as an obstacle and just slammed on the brakes and obstinately refused to move after that. With the probability that the new leader would stop behind it and refused to lap it again, they appeared to just end the race a lap early. Shambletastic :)
    It is very cool tech and hopefully one day might develop into something. But they need a lot more closed testing and development before it gets shown to the public again.

    I watch F1 and technology developing since late 90s. I dreamed about seeing F1 cars in the future capable of driving themselves but actually living theese days and seeing those slow first laps and that 'race' was like seeing my baby making the first steps. It was like starting a computer in 1990s to play Mario and dreaming of Virtual Reality gaming that we have nowadays. It`s simply breathtaking. I will start taking care more of my body just to be alive long enough to see the 10th, 20th iteration of technology. Amazing

    I watched the 'race' on Saturday evening. Only 4 cars spent 2 laps under a virtual safety car 'warming' the tyres at 50 mph then spent another 2 laps under virtual safety car at 60 mph then one of the cars fell way behind with an A I glitch so they continued at 60 despite the race already being green flagged. Eventually they gave the ok and off they went, lumbering around at different speeds to each other until about halfway around the first lap, the leading car locked up under braking and stalled. The following car somehow managed to go past but then slowed to a crawl as the yellow flags were shown. The remaining cars came across the first car and simply stopped not going past the stalled car despite the techs in the pits managing to get it to the side of the track but pointing nose first into the barrier. The race was red flagged and the cars were recovered to the pits were they were rebooted. I had got fed up by then so took the dog for a walk. Upon returning, the 'race' was just finishing with the car that qualified 3rd winning after the 2 Italian developed cars did an impression of Matt's beloved 'Dancing Donkeys' and failed to finish!

    Off-topic: It would be nice to have minor F1 championship but with Reserve drivers and rookie drivers. It has its own points independent of the main F1. This minor league will slot in between weeks long off-time of main F1. Or even keeping main F1 to only 22 races. The minor championship will fill-in. Maybe use the previous year car.

    The pitstops should be done by those robots that fall over when they try to turn a spigot or open a door. "Fail-robots".
    They still might be faster than Sauber

    Crazy that they’re using GPS. They should be using a ground based location system. There’s a company in Australia that can track a fighter jet from 100km away and give x,y,z coordinates down to 13cm (on an object travelling 100’s of km/hr).

    B-Spec Bob has finally started Formula racing! After winning the Gran Turismo World Championship, that's one bold move.

    I watched the live "race" between the 4 cars. While an interesting exercise.... it's not exciting at all. A couple of them didn't work at all and the others just went around at 10mph with brief moments of higher speed. It's obviously early days and might get interesting eventually, but it's a long way off.
