It's great advice, my only issue is when encountering a legitimately unsportsmanlike player, they cut you off, no space, break check, running you off the track. It's so difficult to disconnect and not get emotionally involved, because someone is breaking the code of honor. Makes me angry just thinking about it actually.
I hear you Ash! Yeah there are times when it becomes difficult not to retaliate against some of the idiots out there who don’t understand actual racing 👎
I hear you too Ash, but once you retaliate there is no chance you get a clean race. Better to stick behind bide your time keep the pressure up and let them make the mistake. If you have pace over they will make a mistake and you can get around them cleanly and usually get a gap on them to where you dont have to worry anymore. Sometime retaliation is the only option but its better if you dont for sure.
@@alabama3415 totally agree, some players egos just cant handle being overtaken. Honestly I need to focus more on the actual act of racing, rather than trying to beat opponents at all cost. I love the hobby, but sometimes a person with no self control can really ruin an evening
@@asheleydavies Yeah dont let them ruin your race, day or anything.
Biggest risk to your DR/SR is the first corner of the race. The funnel mayhem has caught me so many times. Glad you commented on it. I wish there was more awareness from other drivers instead of the "Black Friday" simulation.
Very true 👍 Sometimes it’s just unavoidable if someone goes into the back of you at T1, but at least if you can try and anticipate it you can prepare yourself to deal with it. Nothing worse than hitting into the back of someone and getting a big penalty on lap 1 so defo pays to approach T1 with caution…
As someone who is transitioning from single-player to online racing, this is very helpful -- thank you!
No worries, glad it helped! 👍
I'm revisiting this video, Del, after a year because it was in my recommends after viewing a video by the Casual Racing Gamer. I like his content, too, but I had watched his recent effort after watching your most recent video highlighting a really safe, respectful race you had at Gardens.
As you so often point out, Del, the respect you highlighted is the exception, not the norm, unfortunately. As Cas pointed out, and you, here, avoiding chaos should be the first strategy we employ, after setting a decent qualifying time.
Even then, though, entering T1 at Spa or Monza for instance, and taking the inside line so as not to be punted wide, you will still get aggressive drivers intent on punting you. I agree with your thoughts here, but am constantly in a state of depression and frustration about the lack of sportsmanship in most races. Lack of talent is one thing, but deliberate dirty driving is another.
Thanks for your latest video, which I commented on earlier. It is, indeed, a pleasure to watch.
Daily race C this week has been great for my DR rating. I was a D rated driver on Monday and a B rated driver by Wednesday. Starting from the back and avoiding penalties was all I had to do. Especially when people didn’t realise they had to use Medium tyres.
Nice 1 Daniel! Always good to hear someone playing it smart and benefitting from it 👌
Great advice Delboy, you will be charging for these tips before long. Keep up the good work. Numbers going 1 way and I'm glad to see it!
Thanks VR, appreciate the support as always mate 🙏
Awesome race, and helpful hints. Can't wait for the next one!
Thanks Joshua mate 👍
Thanks, Del. You and Womble are my go-tos!
Great video as usual :-)
Cheers Steve, appreciate it mate 👍
Great video! I've got to learn the type of patience required to avoid the craziness. Thank you for the tips!
No worries, glad you found it helpful and good luck out there in track! 👍
Awesome 👌 mate and i agree with you, when someone is faster just let them go and pick up the pieces 👍
Definitely! 👍
Gr8 vid.
Great video mate. has helped me out myself.
Cheers Ozzie 👊
i have learned new way of using english from this video! thanks
Happy to have helped!
Nicely done 👍
It took me about 3 minutes before I realized you are speaking English 😂
Yeah the Scottish accent takes a bit of getting used to
@@deadeyedelboy It's great, I'm jealous. American girls go ga-ga for accents like yours. I hope the Del family is doing well, my friend.
Good video enjoyed the mayhem and glad it didn't ruin ur race
Thanks Beerus 👍
Superb race mate 👌🏻👌🏻 I’m just starting out in the online racing game! Did a race last night, didn’t hit anyone or go over track limits but ended up with 10s worth of penalties just because of idiot drivers!!! I think I’ll learn a lot from your videos mate 👌🏻😁👌🏻
Good stuff Steve! It’s tough to avoid some of the penalties out there but keep at it 👍
All good information for new drivers through to mid table m8
Thanks PDQ, much appreciated feedback 🙏
I started to play GT7 recently, reached DR: C and SR: B ratings, but Monza last week put all my efforts down to D/C again. Sadly starts on the middle are very frustrating on lower ranked lobbies, specially on Monza's first chicane. Something that I learned last week was that is way better to not set a qualifying time, start from back, wait the carnage on the first lap, and then gain positions on grid meanwhile the others guys got penalties and ram each other.
Nice racing DeadEye 👍🏻
Cheers Shaun 👍
I’m in ‘C’ rank. The problem I’m finding is the quality of driving towards the back of pack. Hands up I’m not the fastest so I’m stuck in this pack of bumper cars and getting penalties by drivers hitting me, trying to spin me out and even break checking me. I actually had better races in ‘D’ & ‘E’ rank. My sportsman rating is a constant flow between ‘S’ & ‘A’. In 27 races I’ve had 4 wins, 4 fastest laps & 2 poles but only 10 clean races. Hand on heart I’ve spun 1 person out because he was constantly banging into me, it kills the fun
Good advice all there DeadEye! Hopefully those B rated and below drivers will see this and gain some wisdom!
Thanks David 👍
That was a good back-to-front race you had.
Most definitely loved it
Thanks Max 👍
Cheers bud, appreciate it 👍
Nice one 👍
Like deployed 👍
😎🎙🏎✅
Thanks as always Juby 👍👍
Thanks
No worries mate 👍
Found that interesting the spread in your race. I am a Dr b Sr s... and have been since I hit b. I basically am stuck in this loop of a+ to b lobbies where I qualify 10th, I lose a few races then drop to a lobby which is all b and my qual time is about 3rd.. 4 races if 3rd and I'm back in the a+ to b lobby.... is actually quiet frustrating !
I’ve been there before my friend, I know the pain… what I would recommend is once you get a race combination that you really like, spend a good amount of time grinding out a qualifying time that gets you near the front or in Pole in the B lobbies then if that same time is starting you nearer the back in A lobbies, go back to grinding the Quali time until it gets you nearer the front. Don’t do the 3 or 4 races in the A lobby until you have improved the Quali time 👍
@@deadeyedelboy that totally makes sense! Do you think there is much pace to be had on wheel vs controller.. I tell myself I'm only be cause I can't react as well as a wheel.. am I disillusioned haha. In fairness the races are enjoyable mid lobby, which I guess is the point. But love your advice and will try that !
@@babydansdad I think you could find a few tenths using a wheel but everyone is slower for a while after they make the switch from controller before they find their true pace again 👍
You have found your level is all i can say
Great advice , really helps improve race results. Anyone else know why they're putting B rated drivers in with the A and A+ drivers?. Lack of entries? Tuff when they throw you in there and your starting way at the back and they're 3 seconds a lap faster. Wonder how bad that hurts your dr. always finishing near back against the better entries.
Always happens to me being a B rated driver. They slam me into servers with A’s and then i get dropped and then i drift back into C class. Then i get podiums then i go back into B. Rinse and repeat 😂
Cheers duke 👍 I think the lack of GT7 players on PS5 just now in American lobbies at the moment means there is a big mix of ratings in each lobby
A 12 lap race is not won in the first corner. Ore a 5 lap too. Frustrating that a lot of players have not discovered that. Good one as always DeadEyeDelboy :-)
Cheers Alf 🦉🦉
I would love to see PD penalize weaving on a straight. It's idiotic, and anytime I see it I immediately lose respect for they doing it, no matter how good and fast he/she is.
They’re warming up the tires
Man I wish North American lobbies were like this 😞
Always interesting to see the number of ppl who rage quit after just a couple of laps. No idea that its a 12 lap race and you can`t win in the first 2. As you said, avoid the morons, take your time and basically you can get a good finishing position.
I’ve just had to take a break from online races because of this. My ratings took a real hammering due to constantly being punted off and also picking up penalties as a result. It’s so frustrating
I feel your pain Marc, sometimes a break is required as it can’t get very frustrating… I don’t think the current penalty system is helping as it’s handing out penalties to the innocent party a lot of time at the moment 👎
So glad I check in on the comments occasionally. I enjoy watching you higher rated drivers for tips and pay attention to gear choices for given corners especially- it’s helped me improve lap times and qualifying no end.
These latest bout of penalties and ghosting certainly aren’t balanced that’s for sure!
I’m should we say, a mature driver, having been with GT since the 90’s and Sega Rally prior even to that. So I’ve been ‘around the block ‘ and having come back to online racing recently for Gt7 am quite shocked at the aggressive manner in which some choose to use.
Just today I was demoted from my constant S sr to an A all because a muppet took the attitude if I can’t pass - I’ll punt. I refused to be intimidated and ended up being the one receiving the penalties for being shunted and them getting ghosted for illicit maneuvers.
I decided to send him a message stating racing lines,track position rights and etiquette , needless to say he hasn’t had the nerve or intelligence to challenge my argument.
I hate driver’s that move in front of you after they pass and try to break check. And I don’t get that kind of slipstream
I’ve lost my b rating after I was knocked down to last place in a race in 2 race’s because of people that want to ram
Agreed if you battle, your lap times come down, working together keeps the lap times low
but a lot of drivers want to get their dick out instead and won't even give you space
Great reminder from you Del to box clever
Very true Berry! I understand when people want to battle and fight from the start of a short race like A or B but for Race C, it can pay dividends to just settle in as it’s a longer race, get used to the cold tires etc, then battle as the race unfolds 👍
Never played online worry about getting punted of cause I’m not quick enough
Don’t stress about it, you’ll go into a lobby with similarly skilled players and you can see how it goes… don’t worry about being quick, even if you stay at the back of the grid until you get used to it and confident enough 👍
@@deadeyedelboy will give it a go see how I get on cheers
Is other way to go up; because i make time in Races ..this week
I am B S and u win 2 times today with 787b but i am B in half :( what i must do to get exp;
It depends on the strength of your lobby and the rating of the other drivers you finish ahead of, so sometimes even a top 3 finish will not see you gain much DR. I would say Race C is not a good week to gain DR as the strength of the lobbies are weak with a lot of higher ranked players avoiding the 787b as it's such a sketchy car to drive.
My SR is S but my DR is D. I try to race clean but these ahole players crash me an I get the penalty? I've taken out a few of the players that ticked me off.
impossible they just ram full speed on me when i try to take a corner
Unfortunately there will always be idiots like that mate.
That downshifting is hurting me though.
Really? In what way?
@@deadeyedelboy my bad I had the sound very low and thought u were downshifting super early and then realise u weren't after watching properly again.😅
If someone needs tips on how to be a clean driver to begin with, then... 🤔🤣
But why improve dr?
To get into the A/A+ lobbies and be punted by a higher class of driver :-)
If someone doesn't know their breaking point and you do and you gently bump them with no real change to the race it slaps you foe 2 to 4 seconds. It's a joke, makes online impossible. Gt sport with literally no penalties is better then this joke.
I have to agree, I also preferred it when they had turned them off in GT Sport 👍
@@deadeyedelboy great content man, thank you for being a voice for all
couldnt understand a single word my friend, open up that mouth ;)
That’s just the way I speak bud. Probably best to find another channel where you can understand it 👍
I live in switzerland and my english is not the best but i understand him easy..
@@marleykenbriscoe1691 thank you mate 👍
