If you do not have Assetto Corsa, please submit your times with the sim you are using, replicating the track conditions as closely as possible.

You have until 27/08/2023 23:59 to submit your best lap. Please only submit times in a top level comment. If you have already submitted a lap and you improve, please edit your top level comment.

Please include a screenshot of your lap time for verification.

Notes

You may change ERS deployment mode to Hotlap.
You will need to map a button to DRS if you don’t have that.

Last time out

I managed to just edge SimpleDev and F4celess for the win.

      Just watched the video. Your line through turn 1 is lovely. I’ll have to use that on my next attempt. I was amazed by how later you brake in to the hairpin, but then you locked up and I felt better about myself haha!

      Edit: I’m sad we’re the only people attempting this one :(

        Well you’ll probably really enjoy This Video haha!

        The MGU-H mode was on the “motor” so it doesn’t count for this challenge but still that’s the absolute most I can get out of the car!

        I’m right on the edge of my ability through a lot of this lap, proper sweaty attempt.

        I’ll run in the correct mode for an official lap if I end up needing to, no worries there. At most the advantage was a few tenths as ERS deployment per lap is limited.

        Moar people need to join up and give it a go!

          That’s a stonking lap mate. Hopefully I can find some time to attempt it later this week, but idk if that happens. I’d like to see what I can do with a better T1, Degna 1, and Spoon.
